About Off-Campus Housing Near University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point
University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point sits about 8,302 students in Stevens Point, a central Wisconsin city on the banks of the Wisconsin River, where campus and downtown are close enough to make the whole place walkable. The campus is known for its natural resources and forestry programs, and that outdoorsy streak runs through student life: the Green Circle Trail loops the city for biking and running, and the river and nearby lakes anchor weekends. Downtown centers on a historic square along Main Street, with a Saturday farmers market that's one of the oldest in the state. The vibe is laid-back and rooted in the outdoors. Most students walk or bike, since campus and downtown are flat and compact.
University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
UW-Stevens Point follows the Universities of Wisconsin Board of Regents residency policy, so first and second year students live on campus. Most freshmen at UW-Stevens Point are in the residence halls by default through their sophomore year. Plan on campus housing for your first two years unless you qualify for an exemption.
Off-Campus Eligibility
To be exempt, a student generally needs to be two or more years out of high school, or to qualify under the commuter and other exemptions the housing office reviews. Most students move off campus after their second year, into the apartments and houses near campus and across the downtown area. Landlords usually run a basic application and credit check, and students often need a parent or guardian as a guarantor on the lease.
Lease Timing
Lease terms commonly run a full twelve months even though the school year is shorter, so plan and budget for the summer. Many rentals near campus are older single-family homes converted for students, so confirm exactly how rooms and shared spaces are divided before signing. Ask which utilities are included, since older homes can run high through a central Wisconsin winter.
