Student Housing

Living On Campus

There are options for graduate students looking to live on campus. The Grad House is home to 13 students during the academic year. It is on Sexton Campus beside O'Brien Hall near the corner of Morris Street and Barrington. The Grad house features large single furnished rooms with a bed, bureau and desk. There is a common living room, kitchen and gender-neutral washrooms. Dalhousie also offers a family friendly housing option in Peter Green Hall; located on Wellington Street, just minutes away from Study and Carleton Campuses. Peter Green hall offers affordable accommodations with a family atmosphere.

Living Off Campus

Picture
Halifax is home to six Universities and two Colleges. The city of Halifax houses thousands of students every year. Because of this, finding affordable housing can become a daunting task. Dalhousie University is located in the South end, close to hospitals and government buildings; you're not only competing with those other students for housing but you are also competing with residents of Halifax. To ensure accommodations, we recommend folks prepare to come to Halifax early in the summer. The best time to look for housing for September is mid-July to mid-August; before the rush of students in September. Dalhousie also partners with Places4Students to provide a large, online, real-time database of student housing vacancies in Halifax.
