Accommodation and Transportation

accommodation

We understand that moving into a new country means exciting new challenges, but it also can be stressful and concerning: what is my room looking like, what would be my roommate, how safe and convenient school housing is… All of your concerns and worries are indeed our concern. We believe your room is your sanctuary: you room serves many functions: a place to study, to rest and recharge your body and mind, a place to entertain yourself and friends, and at times, it is just the place to sit and be with yourself. Knowing that school housing plays a key role in successful first year experience at a university, we take it as our first priority to provide the best possible housing options to freshmen and study abroad students.


 

Note: Study Abroad students from Webster St. Louis campus will pay the Housing Deposit fee to the Office of Study Abroad at St. Louis before they transfer to WUT.
