Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Vassar College.

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

Why Crashmates

Why do Vassar College students use Crashmates instead of Roomster?

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