Housing

Can I live on campus?

Ohlone College does not have dormitories. All students live off campus. You will need to arrive early in the Fremont area to locate housing. Many students looking for roommates post notes on the bulletin boards. You may want to look at the Fremont "Argus" newspaper classified ads. Many people rent rooms to students. Because apartments are expensive in Fremont, students often find four (4) other students to be roommates. This helps reduce your rental costs. Others live in other cities close to Fremont and commute to school. It is important that you think about what is the best kind of housing situation for you and begin to make plans.

Use Ohlone College's Housing Guide to assist you with finding housing near the campus.
