Moving to Los Angeles

• Housing  
  Although some graduate students choose to live in University-owned housing, they typically choose to rent privately-owned apartments in the campus vicinity instead.  Non-USC units tend to be less expensive and do not require purchasing a meal plan.  Sharing an off-campus apartment with roommates reduces living expenses and allows students greater freedom.  Apartments can be located by a Web search.
