Semester subleases

Semester subleases at George Washington University.

Every fall and spring, George Washington University students leave for a semester — study abroad, internships, co-ops, early graduation — and need someone to take their room in Washington instead of paying for an empty one. At the same time, exchange students, transfers, and interns arrive at George Washington University needing a place for a single term, not a year-long lease.

Why Crashmates

What makes Crashmates different from other roommate apps for George Washington University students?

Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every George Washington University student a subscription to message profiles — most of which are bots or scammers operating outside the US. Bunky doesn’t verify .edu emails at all and doesn’t carry housing listings. Facebook George Washington University groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the George Washington University community: only students with a verified @gwu.edu email can join, and joining, posting, browsing, and matching are all free — you only spend a credit to send the first message in a new conversation, with no subscriptions, no auto-renewals, and no $30/month surprises. George Washington University students looking for verified students near me, Washington roommates near me, or George Washington University housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.
