Frequently asked questions
Where do Ole Miss graduate students live in Oxford?+
The Old Taylor Road corridor is the grad-school favorite: Lexington Pointe (1.4 miles from campus, from $1,625) fills with masters and PhD students, while Faulkner Flats draws those who want new construction near Rowan Oak's trails. Both are a quick drive to the law school and South Campus research facilities.
Are Oxford leases 12 months, and what about summer research terms?+
Twelve months is standard and actually suits grad life — you're here year-round, unlike the undergrad August-to-May tide. Arriving off-cycle for a spring or summer term is a negotiating advantage: managers will write odd-dated leases to fill a dark unit.
What does quiet mean in a college town?+
Corridor choice. Old Taylor Road and North Lamar sit outside the game-day traffic pattern and the Square's late-night radius; communities like Lexington Pointe skew graduate, faculty, and professional. Ask where a community's undergrad share lives — buildings, like corridors, have personalities.
Can I afford to live alone on a graduate stipend in Oxford?+
The Swayze at Lexington Pointe ($1,625 for 771 sqft) is Oxford's friendliest solo price near campus. Splitting a 2BR/2BA brings it under $900 each with a private bath. Many departments' stipends also stretch further on the North Lamar corridor, where duplexes start around $1,400.
Is there housing near the Ole Miss law school?+
The Robert C. Khayat Law Center sits on the southwest side of campus — the Old Taylor Road communities are the natural fit, with Lexington Pointe about a 4-minute drive and Faulkner Flats about 8, both against the direction of game-day traffic.
