Although Penn State Wilkes-Barre does not have on-campus University-owned housing available for students, there are a wide range of private rental units where students can live while attending our campus.

For Students

To your left you will find useful information about various aspects of rental living. For your convenience, a list of off-campus housing units has been compiled by the Penn State Wilkes-Barre’s Student Affairs office. (These listings have been submitted by local landlords and their appearance on this list should not be construed as an endorsement.)

When moving into an apartment, you may wish to use this Rental Inspection Checklist to make sure that everything is in order before taking possession of the rental unit.
