      • I am a 3rd-year zoology major and will be a 4th-year by this coming fall. I am looking for housing for the entirety of the 2025-2026 school year with a budget of $1200-$1300 per month at the most (hopefully I find something lower), and if someone is looking to add another girl to their lease or transfer a housing/apartment contract to, I'm interested, especially if it comes (at least somewhat) furnished! I'm cool without the unit being furnished, too, if it comes to it. The only critical requirement for the space is that there is a kitchen, as I have food allergies; I must cook my own meals to accommodate. About myself: I love animals (hence my major lol), being outdoors in nature, going on walks, working out, exploring new places, etc. I'm also a very creative person with a super broad range of interests in art, science, media, etc., so I have a lot of fun facts to share in conversation! Generally, I am fairly quiet, reserved, and studious person, but I am also very friendly. I'm not a partier and don't smoke (for health reasons), and I don't drink either. I'm VERY organized and tidy and like to keep my space clean (to the extent of my abilities). Ideally, I would love to become friends with my roommates/housemates and get to meet new people, but if you want to discuss details about lifestyle and personality, please reach out to me!

      • Hello, I'm currently a second year looking for housing for the 2025-2026 school year. My budget is around 1,400 or less and I'd prefer a single or double. I don't mind a house or an apartment if you need to fill a spot. I'm usually out at work or getting food, but hopefully I'll learn to cook this year. I"m an Econ and accounting major and I'm pretty organized (I don't leave things around the floor). My instagram is berenice.77723 so please reach out!!

      • Hi Im going to be a second year in the 2025-26 year and Im looking for people who need an extra person to fill a lease. Would prefer an apartment near school but if not that's okay and would also be okay with sharing a room with one person but no more than that. I am pretty clean and Im usually not home during the day. If you want to reach out my instagram is kaylakkim_ or you can email me.

      • Hello people. My name is Jeo and I'm currently a 2nd English major at UCSB. In other words, I will be a 3rd year in the 2025-2026 academic year. I'm currently looking for housemates to room with. My budget is currently about $800-$1,100 per month but anything lower than that would be great as well. I'm currently looking for apartments in Isla Vista. So, if you have any ideas on where to live in Isla Vista, please let me know and we can figure something out. I'm chill with circumstances like having overnight guests and if you consume substances like alcohol. I like to go out and have fun during the day or night. But, I'm also on top of my courses since I'm a hard worker. I will try my best to be available whenever you need support. Overall, if you are interested in being roommates and meet up, text me, email me, or DM via Instagram @jeo_thepoet. Thank you for understanding.

      • Hi! My name is Dawson Dao and I am a first year Pre-Bio major. A little about me is that I am very, very, clean, and strongly oppose substances and alcohol. I am a bit introverted but I also value having friendships and good communication with my roommates. I don't have a bike or car, so living near campus will be ideal. Feel free to reach to me by my email (dawsondao@ucsb.edu) or my Instagram @g.0.g.3 (the name is Sunny but that's me). I look forward to potentially rooming with you!

      • Hi! I'm an incoming sophomore and a computer science major. I go rock climbing frequently and am on the badminton team. I'm an introvert but I love playing board/video games with my roommates. I'm 100% pet-friendly. Contact me if you need a guy to fill up a spot or need a roommate. You can email me or DM me on Instagram @copper_dalton. Fun Fact: My parents are lesbian, divorced, then remarried other people so I legally have 4 moms. Trust me we will have many interesting conversations about this if we are roommates.

As a roommate, I love to clean and keep spaces tidy. I am quiet in nature, but I can easily live with people who are lively and outgoing since all of my roommates this year are definitely a funny and rowdy bunch lol! I can easily adapt to other people's living environments, but I am the type of person to do a lot of cleaning and organizing!

I value a clean and friendly environment, and I personally live substance-free. I’m more introverted, but I would love to room with others who can communicate with each other and respect our shared space. My budget is up to $1400, but the lower the better!

      • Hey! I’m looking for a roommate to share my spacious 2-bedroom, 2-story apartment at 65 Sabado, right behind Ikon Apartments next to 7-Eleven. It’s just one block from DP and directly adjacent to campus, making it super convenient. The apartment is huge for two people, with both bedrooms upstairs and a bathroom in between, so there’s plenty of privacy. I’ve been here since last summer, and it’s been a great, affordable spot. Now, I’m looking for the right roommate—someone who’s interested in being friends, hanging out, and enjoying a social living environment. About Me: • Nontraditional student – I’m returning to UCSB after a long break, and while I’m technically a senior, I’ll be in grad school next year, so I’ll be sticking around for a bit longer. • Freelancer – I work independently in marketing and web design, which means I have a flexible schedule and sometimes work from home. That said, I also love getting out and being social. • Social & outgoing – I hit downtown for college nights, go to IV parties (mostly daygers), and just like to be around good people. • Active lifestyle – I snowboard (part of SB Snow Club), hit the gym 3-4x a week, and eat pretty healthy. • Sober (6.5 years) – But I have no issue with drinking. I even keep alcohol around for hosting. • DJ & music lover – I have a solid DJ setup in the living room, mainly playing hip-hop & EDM (with some R&B, pop, and rock). Would love a roommate who enjoys music! • Gamer – I have a high-end gaming PC, PS5, and Switch, with the PlayStation set up in the shared living room. Always down to play together. • From LA – Grew up in Venice & Palisades, lived in West Hollywood for a while. What I’m Looking For: • A roommate who wants to be friends – If you’re just looking for a place to crash and don’t care about connecting, this won’t be the right fit. I want an open-door, social vibe where we can talk, hang out, and enjoy living together. • Social & outgoing – If you never go out or aren’t interested in being social, this probably isn’t the best match. • Mature & respectful – I’m open to any age, as long as you’re responsible and cool with living with someone a little older. • Clean & considerate – I like to keep a tidy home, and I expect shared essentials (like oil, salt, etc.) to be replaced responsibly if used up. Rent: $1500 for a single This is an awesome deal for the right person. If this sounds like a good fit, shoot me a message! Looking forward to finding someone who makes this place feel like home.

      • Hi! I'm a 19 year old undergraduate female student looking for ASAP Winter and Spring quarter off-campus housing. I'm a respectable, communicative roommate, looking somewhere quiet to wind down and study at times, and somewhere where I'd be able to cook. A little information about me: - I have asynchronous classes and am looking for somewhere where I can quietly work - I do not smoke, drink, or vape - I tend to be more introverted if I'm honest - I like quiet activities like reading, journaling, or going out like cafe-hopping, thrifting, or traveling via train (I took a day trip up to SLO with a buddy last Friday hehe) - I don't have any pets or a car

      • ? Urgent Lease Takeover Needed for ICON - 2025-2026 School Year ? Hi everyone, I hope you're doing well. I am currently looking for someone to take over my lease at ICON for the 2025-2026 school year, starting August 15, 2025, through July 31, 2026. Unfortunately, I am withdrawing from UCSB due to health reasons and need some time off. Here are the details: Location: ICON, 6545 Trigo Rd, 93117 Room: 5x2 with a partition (a single bed) Roommates: You’ll be sharing the apartment with four other friendly, clean, and respectful girls Rent: $1,794/month Amenities: ICON has great amenities, including a gym, study lounges, and a prime location near UCSB campus. I don’t currently have photos of the unit since ICON doesn’t provide them, but I can assure you it’s a great space and the building is well-maintained. If you're interested or know anyone who might be, please DM me or comment below! I really need to find someone quickly, so any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your support! ?

      • Nice to meet you!! Me and my friend are in need of 2-3 additional female housemates. We are both juniors and consider ourselves very serious when it comes to our education here at UCSB and maximizing the opportunities we come across. Essentially, we are very focused people and have big plans for post-graduation as we plan to live in Santa Barbara for the couple years (particularly, downtown SB and commute to UCSB). We are looking for female housemates who have a similar growth mindset and like to keep themselves productive and is also at least 21 or above (this also includes graduate students). Genuine cleanliness is also very important, especially when it comes to communal areas such as the kitchen and living room. We would like a substance-free home, so absolutely no vapes, weed, alcohol, etc. I will also have my sweet 2-yo cat with me, so anyone who would be okay with pets! There's more that we can talk about, but if so far this sounds like a match for you, feel free to reach out to me and we'd love to get to know you more and answer any questions you may have! We would like to secure a place in DTSB starting in the summer June/July 2025 :)
