Semester subleases

Semester subleases at Pierce College District.

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

Why Crashmates

What makes Crashmates different from other roommate apps for Pierce College District students?

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