How we can make a difference for ON CAMPUS student housing operation.

We believe that our residence operations & the student experience can be better than what they are today.

We know the following trends are having an adverse impact on the vast majority of residence operations in Canada:

  • tighter budgets and reduced government funding,
  • aging infrastructure,
  • significant debt loads, and
  • ever- increasing student and parental expectations.

We understand that you need to do more with less…

  • More programming, more support, more maintenance, more renovations, more wages, more benefits
  • Less funding, lower debt loads, less staff
