Housing/Roommate Information
As you are searching for a place: GSSM is located in Cumberland county. If you rent or purchase on the “East Shore” – or the Harrisburg side of the river – you will have to deal with rush hour traffic and longer drive times. If possible, try to stay close to Mechanicsburg, which is the “West Shore.” Most any community in the West Shore will be pretty close to Mechanicsburg.
We are assembling a list of housing information from former students. If you are interested in finding a roommate with another GSSM student please e-mail or send in your request to be added to the list. We will send that list out by email to all students that are interested, as it is accumulated.
We want to do our best to help keep you informed about possible housing opportunities and roommates, however the staff of GSSM and Global Awakening is not responsible for housing placement, roommate situations or any other living arrangements.
Rental Information:
Approx. 5-10 min. drive away: Lindham Courts We stayed there and they were fine, no problems with them. (717)-697-8388
- Robin (GSSM Student)
Approx. 10 min. drive away: Delbrook Apartment Buildings: Rents $720/mo for a 2 bedroom, but another student and I split the larger of the two bedrooms, making it $210/mo for both of us and $300 for a 3rd student who had their own room. We always had enough room and they where very quiet. Most units have laundry in the apartments. They always have units available because it is a huge complex. Delbrook Phone: (717) 761-8030
- Julia (GSSM Student)
5 min. drive away: Wesley Park Apartments: The rent is about $815 a month for a two bedroom; this includes Washer/dryer upstairs next to the bedrooms. The master bedroom is huge, big enough for two students easily. The utilities are low, I think our highest heating bill over the winter was just over $100 and we stayed plenty warm. They are really nice here and we love it. They also have play ground, pool, and park next door, and you can walk to Weis for groceries, the Dollar Store and the Bank. (717)-766-2426
- Lori (GSSM Student)
Approx. 10 min. drive away: Geneva Greens: Government subsidized housing. (717)-232-7438. Income limits apply. You may mention you are attending GSSM – but it is better to not refer to yourself as a student in the application since GSSM is not accredited and will cause confusion in the application.
NEW 1 or 2 Bedroom Apartments: Must be 62 or older…$600 month. (717)-509-8053
Approx. 5-10 min. drive away: Sunguild Condos: very close to GSSM. 2 bedroom plus a loft, laundry hook-ups, fireplace $895 plus electric. (717)-691-1388
