Housing accommodations for Columbia students are excellent in terms of availability, quality, variety, convenience, and - relative to other New York City law schools - expense. All admitted first-year law students who apply for housing by May 1, 2010 are guaranteed some type of University housing for all three years of Law School.
All Law School student housing consists of apartments owned and managed by the University, and most are located within several blocks of the Law School. Rents are significantly lower than New York City market rates because our housing is heavily subsidized by the University.
Detailed descriptions of the University housing and dining programs are provided to prospective law students shortly after their admission. More information is also available via the Columbia University Apartment Housing (UAH) website.
