MovingOffCampus.com Information

Our story begins in 2006 when Moving Off Campus.com was founded as a website to help college students find apartments. After launching at Washington University in St. Louis, MovingOffCampus.com expanded to include information on local businesses, events and more and expanded to five more universities in Boston, Chicago and St. Louis. At the time, MovingOffCampus.com wasn’t exactly search engine “friendly” (we still make fun of our CEO for it) – we generated awareness and traffic to the website with student teams that would promote the website. And we did it pretty darn well. Like most websites, we made our first dollars from online advertising. Although our website traffic was modest, our “response rates” were a lot higher than other websites. Having espoused a campus ambassador model and partnered with national apartment sites increase traffic and results on campuses across the nation, Moving Off Campus.com is now the most comprehensive and focused college apartment site on the web. Our current partners include Rent.com, Apartments.com, MyNewPlace.com and ApartmentFinders.com. Ultimately, we're committed to being the best website possible for college students and that means having as much contest as possibly can. That's why any property owner can list for free! We're a site built by college students, for college students so helping their apartment search is our main goal.
