Off-Campus Roommate Questionnaire
Are you looking for an off-campus roommate? The Office of Commuter Services has an off-campus roommate resource binder that contains completed off-campus roommate questionnaires. Please fill out the appropriate survey (one is for students who already have off-campus housing and are looking for a roommate while the other is for students who are looking for roommates as well as off-campus housing) and submit it to the Office of Commuter Services (commuterservices@philau.edu or Kanbar Campus Center, 301). We hope that students utilize this binder when searching for potential off-campus roommates. Stop by the office to take a peak!
