Alight is a privately owned and professionally managed community. Click here for more information about the management and ownership.

You can select your roommate(s), or you can apply on your own and we can match you with other students. Applicants answer a short list of lifestyle questions to help in the matching process.

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

Your living costs at Alight can be covered by financial aid, just like on-campus housing.

These funds can be used to pay charges at Alight. Normal payment deadlines will continue to apply.

Therefore, applications are accepted only from students at one of these local colleges or universities. Nonetheless, Alight is an Equal Opportunity housing provider and welcomes student residents with children, with adjusted occupancy limits.

Alight has monitored fire sprinklers, secure building entry, deadbolts on each front door and individually locking bedroom doors. Community courtesy patrols are provided at select times, plus security cameras are located in certain areas. Management staff are also on-site 24×7 and can be reached by a 24-hour phone number.

Alight is pet-friendly in select apartments, with required registration, deposit and fee, and subject to limits on animals and breed. The community is smoke-free in all indoor areas. Guests are welcome at all times, subject to the consent of apartment-mates and security considerations. Overnight guests are welcome, with limits on the number of days and guests.
