About Off-Campus Housing Near Santa Ana College
Santa Ana College (SAC) is a public community college in Santa Ana, California, part of the Rancho Santiago Community College District. With enrollment of roughly 25,000 to 30,000 students - the majority attending part-time - SAC is one of the larger community colleges in Orange County. The college sits at 1530 West 17th Street in a dense section of Santa Ana, the county seat of Orange County. SAC offers associate degrees, certificates, and transfer preparation for students pursuing four-year universities. Because the college has no on-campus housing, all students commute from communities throughout Orange County and neighboring areas, navigating a rental market that has tightened considerably in recent years.
Santa Ana College Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
Santa Ana College has no on-campus housing and no freshman live-on requirement. All students, including those who have just graduated high school, are responsible for securing their own private housing before classes begin. There are no dormitories, university-affiliated apartments, or campus housing waitlists at Santa Ana College.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Every student who attends Santa Ana College lives off campus. The college serves a commuter population drawn from throughout Orange County and parts of Los Angeles County. Common rental areas include neighborhoods within Santa Ana itself, as well as nearby cities such as Orange, Tustin, Anaheim, Garden Grove, and Westminster, depending on where students already live or where they find affordable housing.
Lease Timing
Because SAC operates on a semester schedule with a large part-time enrollment, students do not always follow the same rental cycle as four-year university students. That said, summer months bring increased competition for affordable units in Santa Ana and surrounding Orange County cities. Students planning a fall start should begin their housing search in April or May to access the widest selection before the peak summer leasing season.
