South Texas College of Law Houston/Admissions & Aid/Housing

Housing

South Texas College of Law Houston does not have on-campus housing. However, there are several great options in the surrounding community. We have students who live within walking distance, those who are a quick drive away, and those who commute from the suburbs around Houston. The city has a varied rental market from luxury downtown apartments, to basic walk-ups, to houses with back yards. There are several apartment and housing locators that work with our students to successfully meet their housing needs, and their service is free of charge. We encourage students to take advantage of the knowledge and expertise these professionals provide to find a place that fits in their budget.
