| Transfer students can "buddy up" with other transfer students to rent apartments near campus. Check out the housing guide on the website. Some of the apartments run free shuttles to the med center, right by Rice. Others are on the rail line or within walking distance. Even off-campus, you will feel part of your residential college and you will have time during the O-week to meet everyone. My daughter liked living off-campus, since it was cheaper and gave her a little more space. |
