APT 101

APT 101 is led by the staff of Off Campus Life (OCL) APT 101 starts at 9pm and lasts for about 45 minutes. It would be a great idea to bring food for your residents.

This program is great for all students from freshmen looking for future housing to seniors who are ready for the next step towards the "real world." Also, it counts as a Personal Growth program. In the program, the OCL staff will:

  • Present information about Off Campus Life
  • Demonstrate the benefits of both on and off campus living
  • Discuss the importance of finding compatible roommates
  • Present available housing and price ranges
  • Discuss leases and their legal commitments
  • Talk about how to go about finding a place to live off campus
  • Touch on issues such as security deposits, utilities, safety, meal plans, and commuting
  • Facilitate a FUN evening for ALL!

What have people like you said about APT 101?

"Very informative; I can tell my residents learned a lot." (Andrea, Ikenberry RA)

"It gives you the things that you don't really think about all in one block. Everything is overviewed and gives a good amount to consider." (Jon, Bell RA)

"Some of [the students] did not know the information covered in this session. It is important for all of them to know this before they move off." (Hans, Chesapeake)

"[This information was pertinent because] most are moving off" (Stephanie, Chappelear)

"You answered a lot of the questions I repeatedly get. [My residents] are more aware of all the factors that go into living off campus. It was a relaxed and open session." (Stacy, Hoffman)
