About Off-Campus Housing Near Austin Peay State University
Austin Peay State University sits in Clarksville, Tennessee, one of the fastest-growing cities in the Southeast, about 45 miles northwest of Nashville along the Cumberland River. The campus is compact and walkable, centered on the College Heights neighborhood. APSU requires freshmen to live on campus, but most upperclassmen rent off campus in a market shaped by both the university and nearby Fort Campbell Army post. That dynamic keeps supply healthy and rents well below Nashville levels. Downtown Clarksville has invested in renovation along Franklin Street, adding dining, apartments, and event venues within easy biking distance of the APSU campus.
Austin Peay State University Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
Austin Peay State University requires all first-year students to live in university-owned housing for their first academic year, with standard exemptions for students who are 21 or older, married, veterans, or commuting from a parent or guardian's home within 50 miles of campus. Freshmen must apply for on-campus housing through the university housing portal and pay applicable room and board fees.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Students who have completed their freshman year are eligible to live off campus without restriction. The off-campus rental market in Clarksville is large, affordable, and well-suited to students, with many landlords familiar with APSU lease cycles and the proximity to Fort Campbell creating additional housing supply.
Lease Timing
Clarksville landlords typically open leases for the following fall in January through March. The city's strong apartment construction pipeline means inventory is less constrained than in smaller college towns, but well-located properties within a mile or two of campus still lease out before April. Students should plan to sign leases no later than March to get their first choice of neighborhood and unit type.
