    Frequently Asked Questions

    Where is the property located?

    The property is located at 601 W. Livingston St., Orlando, FL 32801 on the UCF Downtown and Valencia College Downtown Campus at Creative Village.

    What is an individual lease?

    An individual lease is a per-bed lease. You sign a lease and share a bedroom and/or common areas with roommates. This allows you to live with roommates without having to worry about whether they’re going to pay on time.

    Do you have a maintenance staff?

    Yes, they have maintenance available during office hours, as well as 24-hour emergency maintenance service.

    What is the property?

    The property is privately developed, purpose-built student housing located at the UCF Downtown and Valencia College Downtown Campus that is specifically designed for students. The property is a mixed-use building that includes 640 student housing beds, 105,000 square feet of academic and academic support space for UCF Downtown and Valencia College, student services for the downtown campus, a 7,900-square-foot wellness center, and 12,000 square feet of ground-floor commercial space.

    What do you need to know about financial aid and deferment?

    Students will be able to use their financial aid, Florida Pre-paid, Bright Futures, and Scholarships to pay for the housing. In September and January, the student can get a form from the office staff that they fill out indicating when their financial aid is coming in and how much will be available for housing after classes have been paid for. This will hold off the late fees that could happen while waiting for financial aid to drop. The student will be responsible for turning the Financial Aid Deferment form in before rent is due to avoid late fees. The student will have 72-hours to pay off their balance once they receive financial aid.
