The Rice Advantage
Housing
Rice Housing Resources offers support in finding on- and near-campus housing options. Other resources include:
- The Office of Student Media publishes an off-campus housing guide, which lists affordable housing options within 20 minutes of campus. The guide is available at the InfoDesk in the Rice Student Center or from residential housing coordinators or the Graduate Student Association.
- Other helpful Rice housing Web sites include Passport to Houston, offcampus.rice.edu and Graduate Student Association Yellow Pages.
- Corporate Housing offers temporary housing solutions for visiting scholars, faculty, guests, and friends of Rice University. Corporate Apartments provide all the essentials necessary for a comfortable extended stay -- from housewares, linens and electronics to free local calling, basic cable and more. Corporate Apartments offer much more room than a typical hotel room, at a more affordable price.
- Finding the right place to live is key to starting any relocation or temporary assignment. Whether you are searching for apartments, houses for rent, condos, townhouses, or duplexes, there is a wide variety of rental listings available at http://apartmentguide.com that will help you find the perfect place.
