Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Ringling College of Art and Design.

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

Why Crashmates

Why do Ringling College of Art and Design students use Crashmates instead of Roomster?

Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every Ringling College of Art and Design 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 Ringling College of Art and Design groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the Ringling College of Art and Design community: only students with a verified @ringling.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. Ringling College of Art and Design students looking for verified students near me, Sarasota roommates near me, or Ringling College of Art and Design housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.
