Roommate matching happens a couple different ways – through a program called RoomSync which will allow you to create your matching profile and set lifestyle and housing preferences. Then you can search and browse to find potential roommates by preference or names. If you don’t have roommates in mind, we are happy to do the matching for you! We look closely at the information both you and your potential roommates have provided in your application and work to find people that have the same or similar preferences. Although we don’t guarantee a perfect match, you can rest assured that we do our best to find you a great roommate.

We are located 0.9 miles from Cornell.

We’ve worked closely with the university to set affordable rates for graduate and professional students. When considering our spacious floor plans, beautiful furniture, and exciting resident events, you’ll find Maplewood is a wonderful and affordable option. Our leasing staff is available to discuss with you how our rates compare to other housing options and validate that our community offers you the best value for your money, as well as a great location and incredible amenities.

Every year the total number varies, but we have room for 872 residents in our mix of studio, 1, 2, 3, and 4 bedroom apartments.

Not all leases require a guarantor. If an approved guarantor cannot be obtained, we will accept a refundable security deposit of one (1) installment instead.

We have a limited amount of reserved parking spaces available for lease on a first come, first serve basis.

You will need a CAT 5 (Ethernet) cable. We have internet outlets in each bedroom and common area. Your computer must be configured properly for the internet to work. Your computer or device must be registered as an active device with our internet service provider. We also have community-wide WiFi.

Please visit the Floor Plans page or call us at 607-536-9534 for our current rates.

Our beds are full-size, extra long memory foram mattresses. We suggest you bring queen-sized sheets, which will work well instead of paying higher prices for “special” sized sheets.

Move in date for Fall 2022 is August 20th.

We do not send any invoices, but for your convenience, you can use our online resident portal to check your balance at any time. However, payment is due at the first of the month and is considered late after 12:00 PM on the 5th. For your convenience, you can set up automatic payments in our online resident portal.

All utilities are included in your rent payment.

The leasing process begins with an interested prospective resident completing an application. Applications are reviewed and approved by the leasing staff. After an applicant has been approved, they are sent a lease to review and sign. Once signed, the applicant undergoes a background check, and any applicable fees or deposit charges are applied. When payment for all charges is received, the lease is approved and countersigned by the leasing staff.

When a prospective resident first applies through the website, a $20.00 application fee is charged for the background screening. This is non-refundable and does not guarantee your application or lease will be approved.

Each new resident is required to purchase an individual renter’s insurance policy. Maplewood requires residents to hold $100,000 in liability coverage for the duration of their lease. Insurance can be obtained through a provider of a resident’s choice or they may opt to purchase this through our preferred vendor Assurant at www. ResidentsProtect.com. Proof of insurance will need to be provided to the leasing office prior to move in.

Payments can be made by logging into your resident portal. On the home page of the Maplewood website there is a Residents tab under which Pay Rent can be found. You will need to enter the email and the password you created when you first applied to access your resident portal.

Leases are legal contracts for the said term. Residents are responsible for the entire term. Although we do not allow residents to cancel or terminate leases, we do offer lease reassignments, or lease transfers, for a $200.00 fee. Please note that a lease must be transferred or reassigned in its’ entirety. Please contact the leasing office for further details and assistance.

This is a one-time fee of $130 which is due once your lease begins. The administrative fee covers the use of service-related functions during your time at Maplewood.
