How to find an apartment. The most recommended way of finding an apartment in town is Pierce Law Housing Marketplace. Local landlords that prefer leasing to law students post available apartments on the website, and the search option to scroll through listings by filters such as price range and number of bedrooms making the Housing Marketplace both easy and convenient.

Other options for students to search for an apartment include the old fashion patrolling around the streets to see "For Rent" signs, craigslist.com, or asking locals or current students for the best deals. If you opt to ask around, I suggest hitting up graduating 3Ls because that's a guaranteed vacant apartment come July.

How to find a roommate. For students coming to visit during the spring Open House, see who you hit it off with and ask them if they'd be interested in finding housing together. For students unable to visit prior to moving to town in the fall, Pierce Law Housing Marketplace offers a listing of recently accepted students in the same position looking for the right person to share living quarters with so that you can get in touch with prospective roomies via the Marketplace web site. Another option is to see who in the Pierce Law - 2012 Facebook group for admitted students would be interested as that worked for some last year.
