Housing Information for 2009-2010 Academic Year

The Law Center has made an arrangement with Fairfield Properties, the largest manager of garden apartment complexes on Long Island (see http://www.fairfieldproperties.com/apartment/index.html?menu=apartment), for special discounts to Touro students. Touro students who sign 1-year leases get one month free rent, one month off their security deposit (1 month instead of the usual 2), a waiver of the background check fee, as well as other benefits. Fairfield has dozens of really nice garden apartment complexes within 10-15 minutesdrive from school, including 3 in East Islip, 8 in Bay Shore, and others in Sayville, Deer Park, Patchogue, Bohemia and Hauppauge, among others. Students without their own cars should look for a unit in one of the East Islip locations. Touro will provide shuttle bus service, once to campus in morning (in time for 9:30 a.m. classes), once back in evening (6:00 p.m. M-Th, 2:00 p.m. Fridays) to the Fairfield East Islip locations for Touro students who do not have their own transportation. Fairfield has designated a team of employees to handle Touro students, contact Deborah or one of her assistants at 631.499.6660 x263. Pre-discount rates (subject to availability) run about $1000/month for studios, $1250/month for 1 BRs, $1600/month for 2 BRs. Most 1BRs and all 2 BRs can be shared with another Touro student. There is also still one vacancy in the Touro house share on Halley Lane in Central Islip, run by the Central Islip Civic Council, 631.348.0669.
