Need a temporary place to stay and don't
want to spend a lot of money? Check out the
Short Term Lodging options available to incoming graduate
students. Additionally, there are two graduate student organizations,
the
Students Council
of India and the
Chinese
Student and Scholar Association (formerly the Chinese Graduate
Student Association) that arrange some temporary housing via their
web sites.
While currently there is no on-campus
graduate housing at the University of Marland, there are two all-graduate
student housing options in close proximity to campus. These are
Graduate
Hills and Graduate Gardens. They are located on University
property, but are managed by the private company,
Southern Management Corporation.
