    About Walk2Campus University of South Carolina

    Walk2Campus provides purpose-built student housing at the University of South Carolina in Columbia. The company manages multiple properties within walking distance of campus, including Pulaski Square Townhomes located a 10-minute walk from the Darla Moore School of Business, and Carolina Heights apartments positioned closer to campus than university parking lots. Each property is designed with student needs in mind — private bedrooms, modern common areas, and proximity to academic buildings.

    What People Are Saying

    ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

    Living on Pickens Street was the best decision I made junior year. I could roll out of bed and be in class in 8 minutes, and Walk2Campus fixed my AC the same day it went out during summer session. Way better than the big complexes farther out.

    I've rented from Walk2Campus for two years in a 1-bedroom on Pickens. The location is unbeatable for campus access, and any time I've had a maintenance issue they respond fast. The management actually knows who you are, which makes a huge difference.

    Our 3-bedroom on Pickens Street was perfect for our group. Close to Five Points for weekends, walking distance to Williams-Brice for gamedays, and we never had to worry about parking. Walk2Campus made the whole lease process easy even though it was our first time renting off-campus.
