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

Why do Chicago State University students use Crashmates instead of Roomster?
Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every Chicago State 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 Chicago State University groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the Chicago State University community: only students with a verified @csu.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. Chicago State University students looking for verified students near me, Chicago roommates near me, or Chicago State University housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.
