UConn Health does not have on-campus housing available on our campus.  However, the University’s Off-Campus Housing Office has a new section to search for housing in the UConn Health campus area of Farmington and beyond. Visit  https://offcampushousing.uconn.edu for more information!

The Roommate Finder section is also active, and is a password protected site where students can log in using their NetID to search for roommates.
