Due to robust housing application numbers for the 2022-2023 academic year, UA has contracted additional space with local apartment complexes, East Edge and Union on Frank. These complexes are located near campus and students have private bedrooms and bathrooms. All apartments come fully furnished with kitchens and a washer and dryer. Crimson Ride buses stop at East Edge, and both locations provide easy access to campus. Additionally, students are able to stay through break periods and the summer for no additional cost. Students are responsible for providing their own linens, trash receptacles, cookware, eating utensils, and cleaning supplies. Only upperclass students have the option to live at these properties, and students who live at East Edge and Union on Frank through UA complete the UA housing application and contract, rather than a lease with the property.
