Off Campus Living

Some students who meet the residency requirement choose to live off campus during their time at PLU.  Living off campus can provide students with an even greater degree of independence as well as a chance to learn many practical life skills.   If you meet the residency requirement,  you may elect to live off campus.  PLU, as a service to its students, maintains a list of available options in the area by working with Places4Students.   PLU does not endorse or represent any of these listing.   Many of these listing are in close proximity to campus.

The Department of Residential Life enjoys partnering with Places4Students to provide ALL current and incoming PLU affiliates with access to rental listings and property owners and managers with the ability to enter and manage their rental listings on-line. Your PLU email will allow you to access the rental listings after setting up an account with Places4Students.  See what we have to offer by clicking the logo below.
