Housing
Important factors in deciding where to attend graduate school are the location and cost of living in that community. Not only is London a vibrant cosmopolitan centre, but it offers many of the same benefits of a large city without the high cost of living.
At Western, we have a number of housing options for graduate students. Whether you want to live on campus or need help finding accommodation in the London community, we're here to help.
University Apartments
Apply online to live in our University-owned apartments. These one and two bedroom apartments offer 12-month leases, and afford students the comfort and convenience of living on campus within a community of upper year graduate students.
