Housing and Transportation
Where you live and how you get to your classes are important parts of your university experience.
We can help you decide whether you should apply for residence or seek housing off campus. If you live off campus, we provide information about public transportation options and parking services.
Housing
Residence
We offer the best of both worlds when it comes to residence: All the comforts of home in a unique campus community environment. If you are a first-year student, you are guaranteed a spot in residence if you meet the June 1 application deadline.

Off Campus
We provide off-campus living resources and assistance for students, landlords and residents. In addition to a rental listing service, we offer advice and general housing information.
Meal Plans
We offer a variety of meal plan options to suit every nutritional need and lifestyle, including flex dollars, which let you dine at all on-campus food service locations.
Transportation
Public Transportation
As a full-time student, you receive a Universal Transit Pass (U-Pass) that provides you with unlimited access to Durham Region Transit during the academic year. The cost for the U-Pass is included in your full-time student fees.
Our campus is easy to get to from all points in the Greater Toronto Area and beyond.
