Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Catawba College.

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

Why Crashmates

Why does Roomster fail Catawba College students?

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