Where you live during the school year has a huge impact on your life. It is important to choose a student community that is designed with students' interests, wants, and needs in mind. The MARQ offers students comfortable and safe living spaces in London, Waterloo, Montreal, and Calgary that make the transition from home life to university life effortless!

This will give you the freedom you want during this exciting time in your life. Keep in mind, you will have general rules and policies in your apartment building that should be followed.

4. Utilize available amenities

How often do you get to have free 24/7 access to a study room, fitness facility, or lounge? The MARQ offers an abundance of different amenities and exciting resident activities to choose from. Be sure to take advantage of them! They were designed with students in mind and are there to help you unwind when you need it most.
