Medical, Nursing, and Dental School Students
Professionally Furnished Housing

It is hard to travel away from home, family, and friends to start a new adventure at medical school. You need to focus on the coursework and learning as much as you can in a fast-paced challenging environment. This will require your complete attention in order to succeed and advance your career. No pressure...

However, you also need to find a place to live in a city you don’t know while also figuring out furniture, utilities, parking, and other basics of living. Wouldn’t it be nice to have these distractions taken care of from the beginning and feel like you can jump into school head first? Rotation Destination checks off these boxes and provides the atmosphere you need to thrive throughout your first year (or longer!) while you get acclimated to the rigors of medical school.

Furnished housing is nothing new, especially in communities with medical programs. You can pay a lot for a furnished apartment near campus, but that comes with more of an undergrad feel of an apartment, parking headaches, parties, etc. What is sold as “convenience” isn’t very convenient for a med student trying to survive the first year successfully.

How Are We Different?

We are different because we provide an adult approach to living for older students that most people prefer after the undergrad years are over. Here is what you can expect when making us your Rotation Destination:

 

  • Safe, secure home in a quiet neighborhood 

  • Modern, spacious house with private, furnished space

  • Easy parking without permits or long walks to your car

  • Deck and backyard to relax, study, or entertain

  • All utilities and high-speed wireless internet included

  • Cleaning of shared spaces twice per month

  • Amenities like groceries, restaurants, gym nearby

  • Less than fifteen minute drive to campus

 

There are many benefits to staying with Rotation Destination. Enjoy the space of a real house while being conveniently close to campus!

Who Should Live Here?

Rotation Destination is intended to serve med students in two different ways. One group includes individual students typically starting their first year of med school. If you are coming from another city, state, or country, what better way to find a quality place to live and not have to worry about ongoing hassles and expenses throughout your first year in a new place? Each student has his or her own private space while sharing a kitchen and living room area with others also in a medical program.

 

Another option is for med students who are about to begin rotations. If a group of current students wants to have a home base for local rotations and periodic times back on campus, they can go in together for a house. The group can work out who is there when and other details, and this can allow for more than the normal number of people to stay over the year. Avoid the expense and time taken while doing rotations and bouncing between locations. You can save money and not worry about splitting utilities or figuring out furnishings.  We take care of it all, so you can focus on your rotations.

Where Are We Located?

For those attending the University of Iowa, our homes are located in Tiffin and North Liberty next to Iowa City. They are adjacent to interstates for quick access to and from wherever you need to go, whether in Iowa City, Cedar Rapids, or farther away. You get the feel of a normal town rather than the hustle-bustle of campus. Spend your days at the university but escape back to a regular atmosphere the rest of your time.

 

These communities offer a quieter environment while being close to grocery stores (Fareway and Hy-Vee); retail stores (Costco, Target, Walmart, and a mall); and restaurants.  It is actually a shorter drive (less than five minutes) to most of these amenities from Tiffin or North Liberty than if you were in Iowa City. The convenience of these locations can’t be overstated!
