Finding a Place to Live in Santa Fe

Note: Southwestern College doesn't endorse or recommend any source listed; this is merely a guide to help you get started in your search.

Many of the students opt for shared housing to cut down on monthly costs while in school. This can potentially save you around $200 to $300 per month. Shared housing opportunities can be found in the local papers and posted on bulletin boards around town. At your request, we can also send you an e-mail of housing postings which we receive at the school in July and August and early September.
