For students opting to live off-campus, Laurier provides resources to assist in finding suitable accommodations. The university has partnered with Places4Students.com, an off-campus housing website that specializes in connecting students with landlords offering rental properties near the university's campuses. This platform allows students to browse property listings specific to the Brantford, Milton, and Waterloo campuses, offering a range of housing options to suit different preferences and budgets. Additionally, Laurier's Off-Campus Housing Office offers guidance and support throughout the housing search process, ensuring students have access to safe and affordable living arrangements that complement their university experience.

Recognizing that off-campus students are an integral part of the university community, Laurier offers various support services to ensure they remain connected and supported. The Off-Campus University Students (LOCUS) program is designed to help first-year off-campus students transition smoothly into university life by providing social events, academic workshops, and peer support networks. For upper-year students, the university maintains an active Student Events Calendar, featuring a wide array of events and activities that encourage off-campus students to engage with their peers and participate in campus life. These initiatives aim to create a cohesive and inclusive environment where all students, regardless of their residence, can thrive academically and socially.
