Off-Campus Housing Referrals

The Off-Campus Housing referral service offers a number of opportunities to students:

(1) we assist students by providing general information on housing
      facilities and how to select housing,
(2) we act in a consultation and referral capacity,
(3) we attempt to assist students if they encounter difficulties, and
(4) we only list property owners who agree not to discriminate on
      racial or ethnic grounds.

Several area landlords have come together to participate in a COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT program with Penn State Altoona. This agreement enables a student to secure off-campus housing space now, and if they are offered on-campus housing from the "wait list" before August 8, 2008, the student will be unconditionally released from his/her lease and granted a full refund of any monies collected. For a listing of participating landlords, please access the Cooperative Providers Agreement, clicking on "COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT" above. Please contact the landlord directly for additional information.


The Pennsylvania State University makes no representation whatsoever regarding the housing or the landlords listed through the Penn State Altoona Vacancy Listing.  The properties listed are done so at the request of the landlords to assist students in locating possible off-campus housing opportunities.  Students are responsible to inspect the property and negotiate lease terms with any landlord.  The Pennsylvania State University has not inspected or investigated these listings or landlords in any way and is not endorsing any specific properties or landlords for students by this listing.  The Pennsylvania State University disclaims any responsibility, among other things, for the condition of any premises, terms of any leases, treatment by any landlord, or compliance with any applicable local zoning ordinances.
