Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility at Student Quarters

Engrained in SQ’s mission, we prioritize the Health, Safety, and Well-being of our Residents and Employees. We apply external and internal philanthropic programs that aim to support the people and communities that support us.
Whether it’s our paid volunteer PTO, our best-in-class health benefits package, our scholarship program, or the dozens of ways we celebrate personal and professional milestones, SQ is trailblazing a unique social path for student housing.

Environmental Sustainability

Key to our success is that as a nationwide owner/operator, we can make decisions quickly, especially when it comes to environmental impact. In the last year, Student Quarters completed whole property retrofits to:
Improve water consumption and energy efficiency.
Implement new preventative maintenance procedures to fine-tune and extend the lifespan of existing HVACs, appliances, and other high-utility usage products.
Introduce technology to our units that will help track, gauge, and control everyday energy consumption so we can erase loss usage.
We plan to continue our partnerships with third-party firms and utility management companies that specialize in identifying, assessing, and reducing utility usage on our sites.
