Housing and Commuting Resources- International Students

Penn State Lehigh Valley does not offer on‑campus housing, however, students are encouraged to explore the off‑campus housing options located in South Bethlehem, within 5 miles of campus. 

South Bethlehem is a student focused area with most of the housing options located by Lehigh University. The information provided is only an overview, so please visit each property’s website for exact pricing and details. Additional offcampus housing listings are available via the .pdf below. Bus transportation is available to multiple locations to meet your housing needs.

We’ve partnered with Places4Students to help you in your search for the right off-campus housing, roommates, and sublet postings.

Roommates: After creating a Places4Students account, use the Roommate Finder to connect with other students seeking housing. For safety, respond only to profiles using psu.edu or other .edu emails, since the site is public and used by nearby colleges. If you're a student-athlete looking to live with another athlete, you can also ask your coach, coaches often know who else needs roommates.
