We seek to improve the overall quality of the off-campus experience through education, outreach, and programming. We also provide resources for students in their off-campus housing search and guidance during tenant-landlord concerns.

Events & Programs
Breakfast Club
Show care for the community by cleaning up local off-campus neighborhoods for an hour each Sunday during home game football weekends. Volunteers meet at 10:30 a.m. and are given gloves, a trash bag, a BC Breakfast Club t-shirt, and a sense of fellowship! Cleanup is followed by a free and tasty meal at Eagle’s Deli, courtesy of the Office of the Dean of Students. For more information, contact offcampus@bc.edu.
Off-Campus Housing Fairs
At our housing fairs, undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in or planning to live off campus can meet with rental agencies, internet providers, furniture rental companies, and more to learn about the off-campus housing market. Swing through!
House Visits
At important times of the year, undergraduate students living off campus between Lake Street and South Street can expect our staff to stop by, check in, and drop off some treats! Not home when we come by? No worries—we’ll leave the treats at your door!
Lights Off the Heights
During this annual community-building challenge, off-campus students compete for amazing prizes, the title of best holiday spirit, and the Jubilee trophy by decorating the inside or outside of their apartment! To enter your apartment, email offcampus@bc.edu with your off-campus address and roommates’ names.

Dinner with the Deans
These monthly dinners hosted by our staff for different parts of the student body give us chance to break bread with you and hear about what's going on in your lives, from courses to life outside BC. It’s a fun way to connect and get a better sense of how we can serve you.
Taste of Off-Campus
This is the signature welcome back event for off-campus students every fall! Dozens of local restaurants and eateries provide food samples, menus, and coupons for students to browse and enjoy. Stop by to enjoy free food, drink, t-shirts, tote bags, and great information about life off campus!
