Binghamton University Courses and Fees 2026

• Since on campus was expensive i took off-campus housing. There were many whatsapp and fb groups and from there i found an apartment to rent
• My monthly rent was $400 excluding wifi
• Since I am vegetarian, finding vegetarian roommates to share the apartment was the most difficult
• Yes, university have whatsapp groups always start there. FB are great but there are lot of scammers too so be sure of it before making any payment
• About a 40 min bus drive; Most of them stay off campus near downtown.

• Whatsapp group. You can also use this university website for off-campus accommodations. 450 USD per month; all utilities is included in this: gas, electricity, water, internet, etc.

• Masters students have to choose off campus. I sublet a room from a friend i made during the application process. I used to pay $350/month for rent. There are many websites, apartments.com, rent college pads. There are many property managers in Binghamton. My accommodation was 3-4 miles away. I had to take the campus bus. It used to reach in 10-15 minutes.

• On-campus housing is not allowed for graduate students. Off-campus housing is the only option. There are many people who sublease their apartments, post messages on social media, agencies that provide housing, etc. Finding accommodation is not very difficult in the city.
• The monthly rent starts at $430 and goes up to $650, including all utilities.
• I didn't face any challenge, and finding accommodation was also pretty smooth for me.
• Recommendations for future students are to not sign a lease, come here in July, take a sublease, and then look for properties. 1 month is enough to find yourself a good space to live.
•  It's a 15-minute drive from my place to the university. All students live in the permitted housing zone for students, so everyone lives in the same area, especially Indian students.
   

• I found accommodation through an online platform associated to university and real estate agents. I lived off-campus. My monthly rent averaged around USD 450-500 which included personal room, furniture, TV, wifi, kitchen, electricity, water.
• The key challenge was to find housing through reliable sources to trust, safe neighborhood, ease of commute to the university, affordable cost. My accommodation is 25 mins away from the university using university transport bus.

• Join telegram or facebook groups of any university. You will find people there who help you finding apartments whether its sublease or whether its some agency who will help find you safe homes
• Monthly rent is 400-450$ including utilities + everything for fully furnished (washer , dryer , tv , oven , dish washer and what not)
• No challenges encountered there are lot of people you can find on LinkedIn in who are studying currently or who are passed out from any university you going in. Ask them they wont refuse to help you
• For accomodations , just find it between 400-475 $ for my city . Going above that amount is just foolishness because you can easily find a very good apartment in the same range.
• My accommodation is 3 miles away. But here that's not a case because every 20-25 minutes , public transport and university buses are running (free of cost)

• I have used the Binghamton housing groups on Facebook, while also looking for real estate agents and connected with students studying at the university for options regarding accommodation
• My monthly rent was $425 and it included facilities like electricity, water, gas, wifi, heater/AC and it was a furnished house with all the equipment like having a bed, cupboard, closet, a table and a chair in every room while also having basic necessary things like oven, gas stove, fridge, a tv in the house
