Housing is one of the most basic concerns of every new student
relocating to Escondido to attend Westminster Seminary California.
Below is an
overview of the resources available to assist students in their search
for housing as well as helpful insights pertaining to the
moving process.
HOUSING
- Alternative Housing
The Office of Admissions maintains a list of local rooms, guest
homes, and houses for rent through private homeowners.
- This list is available to all admitted students by request through
the Office of Admissions.
- New listings are provided to admitted students by means of an
email group or list serve
- Local Apartments
There are numerous apartment complexes within reasonable walking and
driving distance from the WSC campus. While WSC makes every attempt
to keep this list updated, the student should verify the accuracy of
all information provided on the following lists.
- Purchasing or Renting a Home
Due to family needs, some students prefer to either rent or purchase
a home.
- Listings for apartments, condos, and homes for rent from local
homeowners are available to all admitted students as part of the
alternative housing list (see above).
- The Office of Admissions can recommend realtors in the area who
have interest in serving incoming students as they look for a house
to rent or purchase
- On-Campus Housing
Update: Westminster Seminary California recognizes the importance of
providing safe and affordable housing options for our students. With
this in mind, we are currently in the planning stages of a student
housing project which will provide on-campus apartments for both
single and married students.

MOVING TO ESCONDIDO
- Change of Address
As soon as the new student arrives in the area he/she should notify
the Office of Admissions of his/her new address and contact
information.
- Driver’s License and Vehicle Registration
The State of California requires all new residents to obtain a CA
driver’s license within 10 days of relocating to California.
Additionally, new residents must register their vehicles within 20
days of relocating. Failing to comply with either of the above will
result in monetary penalties through the CA Department of Motor
Vehicles.
- Escondido Services at a Glance
If you’re new to the area, the
City of
Escondido website provides a brief overview of local services.
- Local Attractions
Escondido is centrally located in southern California. Only 25
miles from San Diego, 15 miles from the Pacific coast, and 100
miles from Los Angeles, there are a wide variety of things to do
in and around Escondido.
Additional questions should be directed to the
Office of Admissions.
