Stanford has secured off-campus leases at apartment complexes in Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Redwood City to help meet the high demand for housing. These subsidized off-campus apartments will be offered along with the on-campus options in the Lottery application.  These units will be furnished and your housing charges will include utilities (water, heat, electricity, garbage, and sewer) and internet. 

Please note the following:

• Sublicensing is not permitted within off-campus subsidized apartments.
• Stanford University does not allow pets of any kind in off-campus subsidized apartments, even if a property is pet-friendly. 
• The same guest policy as on-campus apartments applies: No more than five consecutive days or five days total per quarter.
• All off-campus housing contracts are full-year options (autumn through summer quarters). 
• Students will not be able to automatically renew their housing assignments in off-campus subsidized housing. However, we may be able to assign some off-campus students back into their same apartments. Students who would like to stay, should rank their current off-campus housing assignment as the first choice on their housing application.
• Students who are applying for the same category of housing and have at least one year of medium housing priority remaining, will receive a special assignment priority and will therefore be considered early on in the assignment process.

While off-campus housing options will be available to rank on the 2022-23 Lottery application, assignment to these spaces will be based on the overall applicant demand and COVID-19 related requirements. Because we do not know the number of spaces we will assign off-campus, students listing these choices should also rank on-campus housing options. It is important to note that students assigned to these off-campus complexes may have to consolidate within a complex or relocate to campus during the academic year. Students will not be able to renew for 2023-24.
