Off-Campus Student Life (OCSL) provides hospitality, information, programs, resources and services to all students with an emphasis on commuters, non-traditional students and students who live in the immediate neighborhood. With the goal of providing a full campus experience for both undergraduate and graduate students, our services develop community, success in academic and personal development, and opportunities for cultural awareness and leadership development.
We offer a variety of programs and services for students living off campus -- whether across the street or across the Twin Cities. We also have programs that serve specific populations of off-campus students, this includes students who are parents.
There are a number of ways to get to St. Thomas's Minneapolis and St. Paul campuses. From biking to taking the campus shuttle, get all the information you need.
This fountain of resources is designed to assist you in making decisions about living off campus. It spans information on how to find suitable housing, what rights you have as a tenant and where to get help if you have questions.
Although some of our off-campus students commute from far distances across the cities, more than 2,000 of our undergraduates live within a mile of campus, in the Student Housing Overlay District.
