About Off-Campus Housing Near Chatham University
Chatham University is a small private university in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, set on a wooded campus along Woodland Road in the Shadyside neighborhood near the Squirrel Hill border. Founded in 1869 as a women's college, Chatham became coeducational in 2015 and today enrolls students in arts, sciences, health professions, and sustainability programs. Chatham's East End location puts students close to Shadyside, the academic corridor of Oakland, and the commercial strips of Squirrel Hill. Class sizes are intentionally small, and the university emphasizes experiential learning and environmental stewardship. Pittsburgh offers students an affordable, livable city with a growing tech and health sector.
Chatham University Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
First-year students at Chatham University are required to live on campus at the Shadyside Woodland Road campus. The residence halls on the wooded grounds give new students a built-in community before they navigate Pittsburgh's rental market on their own.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Sophomores and upperclassmen who have met the live-on requirement are free to rent off campus. Students most commonly move into Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, or Point Breeze, all of which are within a short bus ride or a walkable distance from campus depending on exact location.
Lease Timing
Pittsburgh's Shadyside and Squirrel Hill rental markets fill quickly due to demand from multiple universities. Students should begin searching in January or February for leases starting the following August. The best apartments on Walnut Street corridors and in Squirrel Hill's Murray Avenue area tend to go by March.
