Applying for CTC
Due to the popularity of quality student family affordable cooperative living, CTC maintains a waiting list. To apply, complete the application and submit the $40 application fee to activate placement on the waiting list. Upon receiving the completed application, it is dated and placed in chronological order on the appropriate list (you may apply for ONE APARTMENT SIZE ONLY). Specific time on the waiting list is dependent upon season and apartment size. Unfortunately, it is not possible to give specific predictions as to when a unit will be offered. CTC offers a 30-60 day notification of availability to applicants which vary at any time throughout the month.
Upon acceptance of an apartment offer at CTC, a security deposit equal to one month’s rent is due shortly thereafter. Apartment rental charges are effective from move-in date given by CTC staff.
