KALAMAZOO, Mich.—Acting at its Nov. 6 meeting, the É«É«À² Michigan University Board of Trustees approved rates for on-campus apartments and apartment-style residential units. The approved rates will go into effect starting with the fall 2020 semester.

Keeping costs in alignment with the surrounding community, per-person rates for existing unfurnished units will rise between $4 and $26 a month. New rates will allow for continued maintenance and improvements to existing housing while remaining sensitive to student affordability.

É«É«À² offers a range of campus housing options to meet the diverse needs of É«É«À² students. All campus apartments are posted as single person, per-bed rates with family housing available upon request. Costs may vary depending on the complex, unit style and amenities chosen.

É«É«À² View monthly rates will rise between 3.25% and 4.5%, translating to an increase between $17 and $26 per month. Depending on the unit style chosen, per-person rates will run from $515-$817 monthly. É«É«À² View housing continues to be in high demand, operating at over 98% capacity this fall.
