ANSWER

Graduate and professional students can start by comparing The Ridge and Campus Crossings Briarcliff, which Emory names as graduate-housing options. Other students, faculty and staff can use Emory’s off-campus housing portal to find options and compare the commute, lease terms and budget. The portal’s listings are leads; Emory does not endorse individual properties.

Best fit for graduate housing

If you’re a graduate or professional student, start with The Ridge and Campus Crossings Briarcliff, since Emory specifically directs graduate housing inquiries to those properties.

  • Use Emory’s off-campus housing site to review the current listings and contact the individual property for details.
  • Emory says Housing Operations does not offer or manage off-campus housing, so the lease and availability questions go to the property itself.

Best fit for general off-campus searching

Emory’s off-campus housing website serves students, faculty and staff and lets you search rentals and find roommates. Use it to identify options, then check the location and lease terms for each property. Emory says these listings are not endorsements and it cannot guarantee their completeness or accuracy.

  • Search the portal first, then compare listed units by rent, lease length, and how close they are to your daily routine.
  • Register on the site if you want to search housing or find a roommate.
  • Treat the listings as leads, not recommendations from Emory.
