Relocating to the Pomona Area

If you are relocating from a long distance, we suggest that you let the student who is closer to campus do the searching. You should allow plenty of time to locate housing to avoid searching after school starts.

Western University does not operate dormitories for its students. However, developers recently built and opened a new housing development (The Helix) especially for WesternU students at Third and Palomares streets, just south of the Health Professions Building.
