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

Is Crashmates better than Bunky or Roomster for Franklin University?
Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every Franklin 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 Franklin University groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the Franklin University community: only students with a verified @franklin.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.
