At The Station at Alafaya, we understand the concerns many parents have before their students choose off campus housing. That’s why we provide you with all the info upfront so you and your student can make the best decision. The Station offers UCF off campus housing in a true neighborhood atmosphere, offering residents greater privacy and the opportunity for a well-rounded lifestyle.
Student-Geared Living
Built with the needs of college students in mind, The Station offers a wide range of apartment features and amenities that help promote both academics and socialization so students can have a full college experience. Our private cottages provide residents with plenty of space to spread out and feel at home. The clubhouse includes a high-tech computer lab, library, and group study rooms, making private, peaceful studying convenient and accessible. High-speed Internet and Wi-Fi capabilities throughout the community make staying connected a breeze.
Modern Amenities
The Station offers the best selection of resort-style community amenities for residents’ enjoyment. Our property boasts a 9,000 square-foot clubhouse with a state-of-the-art fitness center, a virtual golf simulator, multiple flat-screen televisions, and gaming tables; a resort-style pool and outdoor terrace; over 2 acres of manicured green space; a sand volleyball court and corn hole areas; and an outdoor grilling pavilion — residents will always have a way to decompress after their classes!

Individual Housing Contracts
To better accommodate the needs of students, The Station offers individual housing contracts for our apartments by UCF, which means added peace of mind knowing that residents are only ever responsible for their housing contract agreement. If one of your student’s roommates stops paying their share of the housing contract, your student isn’t negatively impacted. Our housing contracts align with the University of Central Florida’s academic calendar so students can move in before the fall semester begins.
Pet-Friendly Apartments
Pets are one of the best ways to make your apartment a home. That’s why at The Station, we provide residents with access to ample greenspace so their pets can run around, as well as pet stations to make clean up a breeze and cottage designs that ensure residents without pets won’t be disturbed. We’re sure students’ furry friends will enjoy life at our UCF apartments just as much as our residents.
Optional Furniture Packages
Whether residents are incoming UCF freshmen or seasoned upperclassmen, our Orlando apartments have something for everyone. We offer both unfurnished and furnished apartments, so residents can live their way, and our furniture package comes with all the essentials students need to make their apartment a home. Contact us today for more details about our furniture packages as well as our available unit options.
Superior Construction
Our UCF student apartments are built from the ground up with your student’s lifestyle in mind, offering private bedroom and bath suites, spacious closets, full-sized appliances, and in-unit washers and dryers. Cottages are also constructed with brick and Hardiplank® exteriors to guarantee that students live in luxury. Plus, our high-quality insulation offers both privacy and energy conservation, keeping utility costs low and noise to a minimum.
Roommate Matching Via RoomSync
Are you looking for more control over how you are matched with roommates? Through the RoomSync app, residents are empowered to choose roommates and build a sense of community using lifestyle habits such as cleanliness levels, studying habits, sleep cycles, and more. RoomSync offers an experience that supports a diverse and inclusive matching community through gender-inclusive tools. Furthermore, the app recognizes the importance of living criteria like service and emotional support animals and factors this into the matching process.
