Housing in campus and off-campus

The vast majority of Mount Sinai postdocs live on-campus for the first 3 years of their employment. After that period they have to look for their off-campus options. As PEC committee we understand that it can be a hectic task to find a place in New York City that best fits the criteria of a postdoc. We also realize that apartment hunting can be even more challenging for those who are not US citizens or for those who search from outside the US. Therefore, the goal of this page is to provide Practical resources to postdocs that are leaving the Mount Sinai housing, including websites, information on neighborhoods, potential roommates and more in order to help you develop your best off-campus housing strategy. If you would like to have more information about Mount Sinai Housing application and eligibility you can visit the the postdoc housing webpage:
