Dorchester and Columbia Point · College housing

Off-campus apartments
near UMass Boston.

UMass Boston lists its address as 100 Morrissey Boulevard. Its university history identifies the campus on Columbia Point in Dorchester. Compare the apartment entrance with your class building rather than treating all Dorchester homes as next to campus.

Talk with our rental team

Tell us about your
off-campus search.

Use your message to name UMass Boston, the actual campus or class address, your monthly budget, bedrooms and move-in date. If you are sharing, include how many people will live in the home.

Add laundry, parking, pet, furnishing or access needs. If you have an apartment address or building in mind, send it so the team can discuss that home rather than a campus-wide promise.

Start with the address.

Columbia Point or another Dorchester address?

The original guide compared homes around the campus with addresses farther into Dorchester, including Freeport Street and Talbot Avenue. Name the streets you would consider and check the full route to your building, including any walk, transfer or shuttle connection.

Separate the neighborhood from the home

The original page included studios, lofts, condos, rowhouses and larger apartment communities. Ask about the offered home’s actual layout, laundry, access and parking. A Dorchester Bay setting does not establish a water view or a particular building amenity.

Campus identity and location checked October 4, 2026: UMass Boston campus address · University campus history. These are campus references, not university endorsements of our brokerage or an apartment.

The apartment and your routine

Check the details
you will live with.

Send the time you need to arrive on campus and any second work destination. Compare the return trip too. If you need furnishing, a shorter stay, parking or a pet-friendly home, say so and ask what is offered for your dates rather than assuming a student-area rental includes it.

The full rental quote

Ask for rent, lease start and end dates, utilities, recurring charges and payments due before moving in. Check the actual bedrooms, shared space and written lease requirements rather than relying on an old advertised price.

Thinking about buying a condo?

Talk with our buying team about your purchase budget, timing and intended use. Ask about condominium rules, costs and any future rental restrictions. Buying does not guarantee investment returns or a tenant after graduation.
