Semester subleases at DePaul University.
Every fall and spring, DePaul 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 DePaul University needing a place for a single term, not a year-long lease. Crashmates matches both sides, and everyone's a verified DePaul University student — not a stranger off Facebook.

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