Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Drexel University.

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

Why Crashmates

Why do Drexel University students use Crashmates instead of Roomster?

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

The email’s domain is cross-checked against the federal IPEDS database to confirm Drexel University is an accredited US school — verifying the institution, not your transcripts.

Most Drexel University students rent in and around Philadelphia, PA (ZIP 19104), in Philadelphia County. Crashmates shows verified students looking for housing within the Philadelphia area, close to campus.
Can I post a sublease or lease takeover at Drexel University?

Other verified Drexel University students can browse your listing for free and spend one credit to send you the first message.
Can I find a semester or study-abroad sublease at Drexel University?
Yes. Crashmates has a dedicated semester-sublet flow for Drexel University. Students leaving for a term — study abroad, internships, co-ops, early graduation — post their room in Philadelphia, and students arriving for a single semester browse and book them. Both sides are verified Drexel University students, posting and browsing are free, the first message in a new conversation costs one credit, and there’s no year-long lease to sign.
How is Crashmates different from Roomster or Bunky for Drexel University?
Roomster charges a subscription and lets anyone in — most profiles are bots or scammers. Bunky doesn’t verify students or carry housing listings. Crashmates is the only platform that combines verified-Drexel University-only access with both roommate matching and real housing listings (rooms, subleases, lease takeovers).
