We are a welcoming and diverse group of students (and 25% non-students) living co-operatively in Minneapolis near the University of Minnesota campus. We live in a three-story, eighteen-bedroom old Fraternity house, sharing bathrooms, a kitchen, living rooms, and garden. We offer off-street parking for an additional fee. We also offer an affordable and (delicious) vegetarian meal plan option, and occasionally gather for communal meals and community meetings. We hold in common respect ourselves, each other, and the natural world. We are always taking applications, which can be found at studentscoop.org.
As an affordable Fair Housing provider (also applying for 501 (c)(3) status) our focus in processing applications is equality.
If you’re interested or know someone interested, please find the application at studentscoop.org! We are trying to fill up the house again after a year of major construction and we’re still not at full capacity!
