Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Ball State University.

Every fall and spring, Ball State University students leave for a semester — study abroad, internships, co-ops, early graduation — and need someone to take their room in Muncie instead of paying for an empty one. At the same time, exchange students, transfers, and interns arrive at Ball State University needing a place for a single term, not a year-long lease. Crashmates matches both sides, and everyone's a verified Ball State University student — not a stranger off Facebook.

Why Crashmates

Is Crashmates better than Bunky or Roomster for Ball State University?

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