Munger

The apartment provides a lot of amenities. I have roommates from different programs and I like the interdisciplinary approach.

Munger Graduate Residences

I moved into Munger during its inception in Fall of 2015 and I have been very happy with my living arrangements. Due to the fact that I was apart of the inaugural class, the housing authority allowed those residents to break their lease due to graduation. My understanding now however is that they only offer year long commitments. I have been very happy with the cost of living, proximity to Ross and the included furniture. The apartment came furnished with mattress, major kitchen appliances (stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave all x2), TVs and couches in common area as well. The major drawback is that most rooms do not have windows and you can't really crank the heat up or the AC up when it is hot. The temp stays between 68-74 degrees year round.

Munger Review

Munger is a great place to meet people from other schools while living in a spacious apartment. It also provides ample amount of space for studying and meeting rooms. The apartment is great for social activities which include a games room and a mini theater. The only downside to living at Munger is the lack of windows in most rooms.

Interprofessional Collaboration with Fantastic Amenities

Munger is a fantastic living environment if you don't mind walking 15-20 minutes to the medical school every day (and/or allotting time to take the bus). Each resident has their own bedroom and bathroom, but shares a spacious common space/kitchen with 5-6 roommates. Your roommates are typically from other graduate programs, seeing as the purpose of Munger is to promote interprofessional collaboration and communication. In terms of amenities, there are beautiful study rooms, a gym, a movie theater, game room, and small store as well. It is extremely secure as well.

Great apartment, good people, escape school

An extremely nice apartment with all utilities included and more amenities than you will use. Living with graduate students in other schools allows you to interact interesting and fun people of similar ages without having to feel like you are smothered by discussions of assignments, exams etc. of your school when you are at home. A fun escape for people that like having roommates. Private bedroom and bathroom when you need your own space.

Great Amenities, close to campus and not very expensive!

Live with 6 other students from different schools. Each apartment is close to 3000 sq. ft., well-upholstered with everything you need in the apartment (washer, dryer, 2 microwaves, 2 stoves, 2 large fridges, etc.);

General amenities are also great - study rooms, music room, running track on top floor, gym, game equipment, video room, cycle storage, etc.

They do not offer 9 month leases (which is a disappointment), but not very expensive ($~875/month); Campus is between 7-9 minute walk.

Loved It

I had great roommates. Not all of them as clean as I would like but its great getting to know students from other disciplines. The apartments are large so it's sufficient room for 7 people, as crazy as that might sound. If you're okay with not having any windows in your room (most people adjust) then this is a gem.

Central Campus Reviews

76 reviews
Pros: 8 minute walk to Ross or downtown. Access into residence halls, suites, and rooms very secure. Maintenance managed by school so never have to shovel snow. Across from the Student Union that has fast food restaurants and Starbucks.

Cons: Have to walk a few blocks to get to real restaurants (like 2-3 blocks).
The main strip of stores/restaurants/etc. is only a 15 minute walk. The football stadium is close. Packard street (runs alongside the building) drops you off on State St which takes you to the highway. Travel is easy. The neighborhood has not felt unsafe to me at any point, though I generally don't travel the area between the areas of 2am and 6am lol so I can't vouch for those times. It seems to be college students and families mostly.
Germantown is geographically located in the heart of a U-M students' universe. Equally centered between downtown's bars & restaurants and Central Campus, living in Germantown allows for easy access to Ann Arbor's student essentials.
Extremely fun neighborhood, with lots of excellent restaurants and bars/clubs within walking distance. A 10-minute walk to Ross and other popular housing spots such as The Yard and 618 South Main.
Parking is a bit of a pain in the butt but there are ZipCars in many locations. That is the way to go! Don't bother bringing up a car. You're going to need a car to go to groceries.
Love all the restaurants and bars that are near us, as well as the fact that we are just a quick walk to campus. Neighborhood feels very safe, even late at night.
Film, booze, quick food, brunch, pharmacy, grocery, late night pizza, theatre (film, plays, musical artists), etc., etc all within a 10 minute walk.
7 minute walk from Ross, 10 minute from the Bus.

Its centrally located to bars, restaurants, classes, and everything else you need.
