If you’re a student at PITT, you’ve probably heard of University Commons before. Heck, maybe you’ve even been there. But if you haven’t, here’s the lowdown. University Commons is an undergraduate student housing hub in the heart of Oakland. It consists of University Commons at Dawson Street, The Lofts at University Commons and University Commons at McKee Place (formerly McKee Place Apartments). Between all of our properties, we offer one, two, three, four, five and even studio bedroom apartments in Oakland, Pittsburgh. Whether you’re planning on living alone or moving in with a few of your besties and/or bros, our floor plans have spacious living areas and private bedrooms to fit your needs.
My daughter just graduated from the University of Pittsburgh, and when I asked her what she would miss most about her time at Pitt, she immediately said her friends and living at the Church at McKee Place. That really says it all.
As a parent, what stood out to me the most was Kristen’s competency — she answered every question easily and quickly, which made the entire experience stress-free and so much smoother for us.
