All graduate students live in off-campus housing. You must make these arrangements on your own. The university cannot do this for you, and you will need to complete the application and deposit the month before arriving in America. The following apartment complexes are within a 1-mile walking distance of the university. Houses are sometimes available for rent near the university as well.

Below are a few external websites to help search for housing:

Please note: If you choose to live in Temple it is about a 15-minute drive to the university, if you live in Harker Heights it is a 15 minutes drive to the university, and if you live in Killeen it is a 20 to 30-minute drive to the university. You can use the local bus, the Central Texas HOP, as transportation to the university. If you choose to live in Round Rock or Austin, it is a one-hour drive to the university, and there are no city buses or train to the university. You must arrange for a personal vehicle if you live that far away and it can be very difficult. We strongly encourage students to live near the university in the first year of study.
