The Off-Campus Living Expo is an interactive event for Ohio State students, parents, faculty and staff to gather information about off-campus living and safety. The expo features members of The Ohio State University's Off-Campus Housing Network which is comprised of property owners or managers, ownership groups and management companies who own and/or operate the rental properties in the University District and throughout Franklin County. Members in the Off-Campus Housing Network communicate regularly with Ohio State and commit to additional safety and community requirements annually.
Additionally, you'll have the chance to connect with:
- City of Columbus departments and community organizations (ex. University District Organization, Code Enforcement)
- Safety resources (ex. Columbus Fire Department, OSU Police Department)
- University departments (ex. Nike U-Move, Student Advocacy)
- Local businesses to support your off-campus living experience (ex. Student Legal Services and more!)
