There are a number of off-campus living facilities for Ohio University students. One that I have found particularly helpful and accommodating for graduate students is University Courtyard. Although Courtyard houses both undergraduate and graduate students, the staff does an excellent job of trying to match graduate students with other graduate students.In addition to the dedicated staff, UC offers some of the best amenities- free parking, exercise gym, open computer lab with printer and study rooms, and a pool. One of the features that most residents utilize is the shuttle bus to and from campus. Although Courtyard is only a short walking distance away from campus, we all have our days when we either don't feel like walking OR we don't have cash to pay for parking on campus. For only $50 dollars a quarter, you can purchase a bus pass!
My experience in Courtyard has been amazing so far. I've only had one issue with a roommate and the staff was more than helpful in resolving the problem. More than half of the graduate students in my program live in Courtyard and take advantage of the amenities and shuttle services. Check out the slide show link below for a look at University Courtyard.

Your blog looks great! I like the information you provide. If I were a grad student I would find it really helpful. Good choice of links and great style in your writing.
For grad students just out of school, I think Courtyard is a great place. If you don't have any furniture, it's "instant apartment" - just add resident. Plus, I get the sense that there is a sense of community among those who live there.
I liked all the amenities Courtyard offered; however, I already had (and wanted to keep) all of my own furniture. Since a number of Athens apartments only offer the furnished variety, I had to look elsewhere.
Your blog seems like it reads thematically and cohesively, so that if I were to go back in the archives I would find more useful information. Your tone is also very honest, which helps your credibility
This is AWESOME!!! It's always beneficial to hear about something from one's own personal experience.
The information you present is more useful to a graduate student than what UC or other places can offer on their sites because you tell the reader what THEY want to know (and it flows much better than the "robotic" text the apartment management uses on their site).
I can't wait to return to this blog to read more about what a graduate student needs to know during their stay in Athens.
I really admire this, I mean it really looks interesting!Very nice research. Thanks to the author.

the information about graduate students which you have posted is really useful to the graduate students rather than other places. many students had look elsewhere for their residence.
