Please note that this is strictly an estimated comparison sheet showing the different costs associated with living in a dorm to living off campus. We provide the only exclusive, private bus service to our residents, running every 30 minutes to the Shriver Center. The Miami Metro also has two stops right outside our complex picking up every 15 minutes. We also offer “Rent Free” summer housing to our residents which comes in very handy if you are interested in taking summer classes. When you compare living at the Oxford/Miami Commons to living in a dorm, or to any other off-campus housing, you will see that there is no comparison. We're not just housing, we're home! "We're not just housing, we're home!"
