HOW TO PARTNER WITH US:

 

Housing Fair

The UVU Housing Fair takes place every February to provide an opportunity for students to do “one-stop shopping” for places to live near UVU and the surrounding area. The Housing Fair brings together property owners and managers to inform students about housing options and how to live successfully off campus. If you are a local student housing apartment complex looking to market, be sure to take advantage of the Housing Fair. The Housing Fair typically takes place in February, is free for our Community Partners, and is available for a fee to other complexes.

Additional Advertising/Partnership Opportunities

There are three other opportunities for off-campus housing properties to advertise/market to UVU students. Find My Place & Campus Connection both offer unique ways to reach UVU students seeking housing. Complexes can also work with UVU athletics to advertise and partner at athletic events throughout the year.

List your property on 'Find My Place'

  • The UVU Off-Campus Housing office is excited to partner with Find My Place to continue to provide UVU students, faculty, and staff with a safe option to look for off-campus housing and roommates. This partnership will also provide local landlords and property managers with additional support for listing their properties for rent and help UVU students better understand the off-campus housing market.
  • The UVU Housing office and website will now direct all current and prospective students, faculty, and staff seeking housing near the university to the new housing marketplace facilitated by Find My Place.
  • We strongly encourage all housing properties in the area to advertise on the site. To learn more or to list your property, please contact: Colton Hibbert, Founder, Find My Place [email protected]
