ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

A rental installment is a payment made as part of a series of payments. To simplify the billing process, the entire sum of the housing contract is divided into EQUAL installments. Instead of reducing the first installment and increasing the remaining installments, all installments are equal. These installments are factored into the start and end dates of the lease, including proration.

Rent is due the first of each month and may be paid online by ACH, debit or credit card through the resident portal or by check or money order at the leasing office. NO CASH ACCEPTED. Convenience fees may be charged for online payments. Late fees vary by property. Refer to your Housing Contract for more information.

Yes, we offer a roommate matching system called RoomSync! If you don’t have anyone in mind that you’d like to live with, RoomSync can help you connect with potential roommates who have already completed the leasing process. Once you’ve signed your lease, you’ll receive an invitation to join RoomSync, where you can search for, chat with, and select your future roommates. If you don’t find a roommate or fail to complete the process by the deadline, our team will use the roommate matching sheet from your application to find the best match for you.

SMART housing was designed to help students who are receiving need-based financial aid or are working to independently pay for college and living costs. If you qualify, some apartments offer a lower rent price in certain rooms.

There are two ways you can qualify for SMART housing:

1. Need-Based Financial Aid
2. Low-to-moderate Income Requirement

The first way to qualify for SMART housing is if you receive any need-based financial aid. This form of qualification is fairly simple; if you check your UT Direct CASH page, you can view a list of any financial aid that you have received. If any of the aid on your personal list matches one that appears on the approved need-based financial aid list, regardless of the amount, you qualify!

The second way to qualify for SMART housing is if you fall within the low-to-moderate income bracket. In most cases, this means if you demonstrate that the income of the person paying for your apartment is between 50% and 80% of the Austin area’s median income, you will qualify for SMART housing.

We currently offer SMART housing in our B2A-Shared and D1 bed spaces.
