"Housing around UCSB can be brutal, especially if you’re new here. UCSBUniverse helped me find a place during my first quarter, and honestly, it made me feel like I belonged right away. My roommates ended up becoming my best friends—I got lucky, but I also think the platform made that possible."


— Sophie Kim, Freshman at UCSB

"I love how straightforward UCSBUniverse is. I don’t waste hours messaging random people anymore—everything feels legit, and I know I’m not walking into a scam. It’s given me peace of mind, and that’s huge when you’re already stressed with school."


— Carlos Ramirez, Junior at UCSB

"UCSBUniverse is more than just housing for me—it’s how I found community. I connected with people through listings who turned into actual friends. I went from living with strangers to having a little family by the beach. I recommend it to every student I meet."


— Maya Thompson, Senior at UCSB
