Student Housing

Housing Northwest recognizes the increasingly competitive environment in higher education for attracting and retaining students.  High quality student housing is an important piece of the competitive puzzle.  Housing options can be a huge factor in student’s overall satisfaction with their educational experience. 

The roots of Housing Northwest reflect a strong student orientation.  Housing Northwest was founded in 1969 by students at Portland State University.  Housing Northwest is a not-for-profit corporation governed by a Board of Directors.  In every phase of its operation, HNW focuses its energies on providing an environment in which students attain goals of self-development, academic success and life enrichment.  HNW also believes strongly in involving students in their own governance.

Housing Northwest is dedicated to exceptional customer service for tenants and the partner institution’s administration.  HNW has a proven track record of facilities maintenance and open communication lines with residents.  We will work closely with administrators to assure the culture and mission of the university is conveyed throughout the student-housing program.
