The typical housing configuration is a furnished, two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment shared by up to four Stratford students of the same gender. In most cases, two students will share a bedroom. Other higher-cost housing configurations may be available upon request.

The CHS shared roommate program has helped thousands of students by providing a flexible leasing environment that takes care of many housing headaches. Students are able to concentrate on preparing themselves for school and their studies while leaving the housing hassles to the student housing professionals. Since students are placed on individual leases, they are protected from a roommate’s inability or unwillingness to pay their share of the rent. It should be noted that Stratford and CHS are independent corporate entities.
