Living off campus

Looking for accommodation off-campus? AUArts is on Calgary’s Light Rail Transit system (also called the C-Train), making it a convenient commute from most areas in the city.

Be aware that Calgary is a large city in terms of area, so check Calgary Transit’s Trip Planner for information on travel times from where you’re hoping to live before you commit to a rental agreement.
