As you prepare for your arrival to the U.S., and to Rutgers University-Camden, we understand some of those questions will include housing and living accommodations in the Camden/Philadelphia area. Typical apartments range in size/layout from studio/efficiencies to 2-bedrooms or entire houses. Utilities (gas, electric, cable/Wi-Fi and/or water) are not typically included. Most accommodations are unfurnished.  

Listed are some search tools commonly used in the U.S. to find living accommodations followed by a list of apartments close to the Rutgers-Camden Campus:  

  • Included are the zip/postal codes used in areas where students tend to live. These include zip codes in Philadelphia, PA (accessible to campus by high-speed train) and towns throughout southern NJ (all within a 20-minute train-ride to campus).  
  • Many students choose to live in Philadelphia (Philly), the 5thlargest city in the U.S. It is also only a 6-minute train ride from campus to Center City Philadelphia. Philly is easy to navigate with plenty of public transportation.  
  • International students who live in Philly tend to reside in: Center City, Olde City, Fishtown, University City/West Philly and Chinatown/Center City North.  
  • These are only recommendations and not an exhaustive list of available options.
  • Please search properties thoroughly and do not hesitate to contact the property owner/leasing agent with questions.  
  • DO NOT SIGN A LEASE OR AGREEMENT BEFORE SEEING AND INSPECTING THE PROPERTY!  This means, you should not sign a lease if you are currently out of the country or state.  
  • If you are interested in finding roommates, please join our Facebook Group: Rutgers Camden International Students. Please comment that you are looking for roommates.  
  • If you are looking for housing outside of Camden, you can use the following search tools:  
    • Zillow.com  
    • trulia.com  
    • apartments.com  
    • hotpads.com  
    • Facebook Marketplace  
    • We do not recommend using Craigslist’s.   When using these search engines, it is easier to find housing by zip code. Here are common zip codes within our area:

        • Southern NJ: (Along the Patco Hi-Speedline)
