Can I live with friends, or can you match me with a roommate?

Yes, you can select your roommate(s), or you can apply on your own and we can match you with other students. No problem! Our roommate matching program is powered by RoomSync – a roommate matching app. You will have the opportunity to create a personal profile, search, filter, chat and match with other residents who will be living in the community. While a perfect match is never guaranteed, applicants answer a short list of lifestyle questions via RoomSync to aid in the matching process.

What is individual leasing liability?

Instead of requiring all roommates to sign a joint lease, each person at Campus1 MTL has their own individual contract, with one person per bed space. This means you are only responsible for paying for yourself — not your roommates. Even if a roommate moves out or other bed space in your unit is empty, you only pay the rate for your bedroom.

What is included in the rate?

Water, internet and electricity are included in our utilities package.

Are accommodations furnished?

Select units include:

Love Seat
Coffee table
Twin XL bed (54" x 80")

When do the contracts start and end?

We offer 12-month (September - August) and 8-month (September - April) lease terms with payments made in 12 or 8 equal installments. Please inquire with our Leasing Team for specific start and end dates. Rates/installments, fees and utilities are subject to change and may differ between lease terms. Rates/installments do not represent a monthly rental amount (and are not prorated), but rather the total base rent due for the lease term divided by the number of installments.

When is the rent installment due?

Installments are due on the 1st of every month per the payment schedule outlined in the lease agreement.

What is an installment?

The typical lease term coincides with the university's academic calendar. The resident is charged a total rent amount for the contracted occupancy period. The lease agreement will reflect the total rent amount typically divided into equal installments for the duration of the lease term. These installments do not represent a monthly rent amount and are not prorated.

Can I pay by credit card?

Yes, residents can click here to make a one time or monthly payment by Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Pre Authorized bank withdrawals. Campus1 MTL also offers automatic payment by credit card. And of course certified cheques are always welcome! Should you choose to opt for the online option, please click here to make a one-time or monthly payment.

Will my financial aid cover charges at Campus1 MTL?

Your living costs at Campus1 MTL can be covered by financial aid, just like on-campus housing. Any available financial aid funds, after university charges are satisfied, are released to the student for non-institutional expenses, such as off-campus housing. These funds can be used to pay charges at Campus1 MTL. Normal payment deadlines will continue to apply.

When can I apply?

Rooms are allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis. An application does not guarantee you a space. To guarantee your space, you must submit your signed and completed Lease Agreement, make your first installment payment, and receive confirmation of your space from our office prior to moving in.

How can I check that you received my application?
