Housing Options for C.E.S.L. Students
Residential Life at Tennessee Tech is a living/learning community that seeks to serve society by developing the leaders of tomorrow and extending opportunities to enhance individual identity.
Residential hall rooms at Tech range from $3084 to $4070 per semester for a double room. Single rooms are much more expensive!
Students who live on campus are required to purchase a meal plan. If a student has a special diet, we recommend they live off-campus so they can prepare their own meals.
Typically, most international students prefer to live off campus, as apartments are reasonably priced in the area. Cookeville and the region around here has one of the lowest cost of living in the USA. In addition to apartments, international students can choose to live with a Home Stay family.
Tennessee Tech's Dining Services has unlimited options ranging from $2874 to $3054 .These usually include dining dollars to use on the restaurants on campus, guest meals, and unlimited access Monday through Friday.
Additionally many Center for ESL students opt for the Block plans which offer students the chance to buy blocks of meals, like 125 meals, or 95 meals or 65 meals or 40 meals. The prices range from $625 to $1974.
