My older daughter did very well with subleasing for below market price when she was living off campus. She lived at 312 for the price of Cornell housing. When she was looking to live off campus I advised her to only have one roommate. Most of her sorority friends wanted to rent a big house junior year, I didn’t support that. She and her best friend ended up getting a place together, but she did it by subletting from people who were studying abroad. Some of those students do not tell their parents that they were subletting their apartment, so they didn’t care how much they got for subletting.

Our younger daughter will be living at her sorority next year. She’ll go study abroad one semester, so she will only be living off campus for 1.5 year.
