Harvard Housing

Harvard Real Estate Services owns and manages almost 3,000 apartments within about a one-mile radius of Harvard Square. These apartments range from one-room studios to two-, three-, and four-bedroom apartments, and are collectively known as Affiliated Housing.

Descriptions of the apartments and apartment complexes, maps, and complete information on rents, eligibility and policies are available online. Application is made online. Leases are typically for one year and end on June 30.

Demand for these apartments typically exceeds supply, and rental opportunities are offered by lottery. To have a good place in the lottery for the 2008-09 academic year, you must apply by April 20, 2008.

Advantages: The entire process of securing an apartment can be completed from any place that has internet access, and a new student can be confident that the accommodations will be of acceptable quality without actually visiting Cambridge ahead of time. Tenants in Affiliated Housing do not have to provide a security deposit, final month's rent, or brokers' fees. Student rents are conveniently charged to the student's term bill.

Visit the Harvard Real Estate Services website, particularly the Harvard Affiliated Housing page, for complete information.

You can also call the Housing Office at 800.252.5020 or at 617.495.3377, and you can email them at hhousing@harvard.edu.
