Published guidance
Stony Brook describes separate apartment-housing tracks. Schomburg Apartments on West Campus and Chapin Apartments on East Campus serve matriculated graduate and health-science graduate students. The university’s continuing and transfer housing information separately identifies undergraduate apartment-style housing at junior standing, U3/U4, or higher.
Check the student’s degree level and standing before comparing these options. Graduate eligibility should not be applied to an undergraduate, and earlier-year or transfer suite options should not be assumed to have the same apartment eligibility rules. The official information reviewed on October 17, 2026 establishes these distinctions and campus locations. It does not establish an individual placement, a particular residence or unit, or current availability. Confirm the applicable housing track and an actual university assignment before making move-in arrangements.
