About Off-Campus Housing Near Clark Atlanta University
Clark Atlanta University is a private historically Black university in Atlanta's Vine City neighborhood, west of downtown. Founded in 1988 through the consolidation of Clark College and Atlanta University, CAU sits at the heart of the Atlanta University Center Consortium alongside Morehouse, Spelman, Morris Brown, and Morehouse School of Medicine. The campus runs along James P. Brawley Drive SW, placing students within walking distance of the MARTA West End rail station. CAU enrolls roughly 3,500 students across programs in business, social work, mass media arts, and the sciences. Campus life centers on the Currie Student Center, with Greek life, arts organizations, and community service playing a central role in student culture.
Clark Atlanta University Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
All first-year students at Clark Atlanta University are required to live on campus. Students must remain in university housing for the full academic year unless they receive an official exemption through the Office of Residential Life.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Students who have completed at least one full year at CAU are generally eligible to move off campus. The West End, Vine City, and Oakland City neighborhoods directly surrounding campus are the most popular choices for returning students seeking affordable apartments close to the Atlanta University Center.
Lease Timing
Off-campus landlords in the West End and Vine City areas see strong competition from AUC students each spring. Students should begin touring apartments in February and aim to sign leases no later than April to secure the best units near campus.
