Do students live in honors housing for all four years?
Most kids move off campus jr yr but you could be in honors housing frosh-jr yrs - I don’t remember but I think srs dont have guaranteed housing but none of mine wanted to live in dorms past soph yr.
Thanks! Do you know if it is easy to find decent off campus housing when they move off campus?
There are honors options for three years. Sutherland Hall, Pennsylvania hall, Forbes-Craig apartments.
You have to apply for those as part of the housing application every year.
@greentravel, Our Off Campus Living office can assist students with finding apartments and even provides rental listings: http://ocl.pitt.edu/

@greentravel off campus housing is cheap and abundant but safety and comfort/quality vary quite alot! my son lived over in squirrel hill - quiet and nice enough place, but a commute via public bus to campus. my daughters live in north oakland on craig st - a bit more quiet than south oakland and a walk to campus. The good news about off campus is really very affordable but lots of variety
Did your kids move off campus junior year?
2 kids moved off after soph yr and latest dd moved off after frosh yr (which suited her but wouldve been too much for my other two I’d suspect)
