The cost of living in New York City is higher than most cities in the United States. Students should assess their finances and develop a budget for rent, utilities (electricity, hot water, heat, phone, cable TV, Internet, etc.), transportation to and from school, furniture, and groceries. There are many online resources and services that provide helpful procedural information, rental tips, and considerations for apartment hunters. Available apartments are listed in classified ads in local newspapers, online, and through brokers.
Juilliard hosts several workshops on financial literacy, eating healthy on a budget, and renting in New York during the academic year. Additionally, current College Division students and verified Alumni can join our closed Facebook group, the Juilliard Off-Campus Housing Forum, to find listings from fellow Juilliard students and alumni or to look for new roommates.
