Housing Options & Finding a Roommate

MSU Law students have a variety of housing options.

• Single students interested in the convenience of on-campus housing (PDF) should consider Owen Residence Hall, which is a two-minute walk from the College of Law. Each year, approximately 100 law students choose to live in Owen. Complete and submit the Owen Hall application early, as space is limited!
• University apartment housing is available for both single students and students with families. Apply early, as space is limited!
• MSU is home to nearly 50,000 students, with a wide variety of off-campus housing options in East Lansing, Lansing, and Okemos. Refer to the College of Law Housing Guide (PDF) for a listing of the apartment complexes where many MSU Law students choose to live.

Single students are strongly encouraged to minimize expenses by having one or several roommates. Over the course of three years at MSU Law, it's possible to save as much as $10,000 by having a roommate(s).
