From the Office of Operations:

We are excited to welcome you to our university community! As you prepare for your journey to San Diego, we want to ensure you have the necessary resources and information for a smooth transition, especially regarding housing.

Important Note: It is mandatory for all international students to reside within the San Diego area. This is to ensure compliance with visa regulations and to facilitate mandatory course attendance. Living within close proximity to campus will also enhance your academic experience and allow you to fully participate in university activities.

At CMU, while we do not provide on-campus housing, we understand the importance of a comfortable living environment for our students. We recommend exploring external housing options in the vibrant communities surrounding our campuses. This approach allows students the flexibility to choose accommodation that aligns with their preferences and budget. Whether it’s apartments, shared housing, or other off-campus options, the diverse neighborhoods near our campuses offer a range of choices to suit individual needs. CMU is dedicated to supporting students in finding housing solutions that enhance their overall college experience.
