Individual leasing means that each person is only responsible for their bedroom and a portion of the common area in our luxury student apartments. You are not responsible for your roommate’s payment if they decide not to return for the Spring semester.

Your rental installment includes high-speed internet, trash, and recycling services, as well as monthly resident social events and elevated amenities. Electric and water services are billed monthly through your resident account based on your apartment’s usage.

Yes! VERVE Columbus offers a roommate matching program for our OSU student apartments. After filling out the roommate profile in your application, we will match you with someone with a similar lifestyle and habits to the best of our ability. Additionally, we partnered with RoomSync, an app used to create a profile and swipe to match with potential roomies!

We have three billing options to pay the entire amount due under your lease – one installment, two installments, or twelve installments.
If you choose to pay a single installment for the total contract amount, that payment is due August 1. If you choose to pay in two-semester installments, those installments are due August 1 and January 1. If you choose to pay in twelve installments, the first installment is due on August 1, and the remaining eleven installments are due on the 1st of the next 11 months. Please note that these are all installment payment options, not monthly rent.

Payment can be made through your resident portal with the following options:

• E-check
• Credit or Debit Card – Service fee may apply.*

All payment options have the ability to be submitted as a one-time payment or as a recurring monthly payment.

Each resident is required to have an active liability insurance policy. Coverage may be offered through your parent’s insurance provider, or you can enroll through your resident portal. A small fee will be added to each rental installment. Additionally, you may purchase additional coverage that will cover your personal belongings if a loss were to happen.

VERVE Columbus’ lease is binding and cannot be broken. If your plans change and you no longer intend to live there, you can re-let your space to another person. Please contact the leasing office for additional details on the re-let process and associated fees.

You may submit maintenance requests through your resident portal or by stopping by the leasing office. You will receive updates to your request via email. For emergency assistance after hours, please call the leasing office and follow the prompts to reach the maintenance team.

Each resident will receive a key to their apartment’s mailbox. Packages will be delivered to lockers located near the leasing office or placed in the oversized package room for pickup at their convenience. You will be notified by text and/or email when you have received a package.

A guarantor is a third party who ensures timely payment for your rental installment and any additional charges during your lease at VERVE. If you do not have a guarantor, we have alternate options for approving your application to live at VERVE Columbus. Contact our office to discuss these alternatives.

International students must provide a copy of their student visa during the application process. Instead of the guarantor requirement, you may prepay the last two installments of your lease before moving in.
