As a Sophomore moving off campus next year, finding an apartment is turning out to be a much harder and more complicated process than I expected. Lucky for me, Loyola offers off-campus living seminars. At these seminars, the office of Off Campus Living, go into detail about the steps to take and helpful tips about finding the right apartment.

The seminar helped me become aware of many things that I should find out before signing a lease. Things like bed bugs, heating bills, furniture and the general legal options with in a lease are all examples of things that I learned at the seminar.

Loyola even handed out little books that have everything they discussed at the seminar in writing so I didn’t have to take notes!
