University Club Apartments is not a single community or a national brand. The name is shared by at least five unrelated apartment properties across Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma, each with a different operator, lease structure, and price point. Based on search patterns brightplace tracks across apartment categories, "university club apartments" generates searches from at least five distinct metro markets. Most of these properties sit near university campuses, but not all target students. The key to finding the right one is anchoring your search by city.

The Gainesville property is the highest-profile University Club Apartments location. Located at 2900 SW 23rd Terrace, Gainesville, FL 32608, this community is managed by American Campus Communities and serves University of Florida students almost exclusively. Units are 4-bedroom/4-bathroom only, with approximately 1,432 sq ft per unit. Per-bedroom pricing starts at approximately $749/month (as of Q3 2026).
By-the-bedroom pricing means rent is quoted per person per bedroom, so a 4-bedroom unit is priced as four separate leases rather than one total lease split between roommates. All units come fully furnished with internet and utilities included up to a monthly cap. The property sits approximately 1.2 to 1.5 miles from the UF campus, a 20 to 23 minute walk. Multiple RTS Gainesville bus routes serve the area, and the Archer Road corridor nearby offers grocery access (including Whole Foods), restaurants, and retail. Renters who bike will find campus accessible in under 10 minutes.

Roommate matching is a service some student housing communities offer that allows residents without a pre-selected roommate to find compatible housemates through a structured application process.
An individual liability lease means each resident signs a separate agreement and is responsible only for their own rent, not for any amount owed by a roommate. University Club Gainesville uses this structure exclusively.
An installment is a portion of a fixed annual rent total, not a prorated monthly payment. If you move in partway through a billing period, you still owe the full installment for that period. In reviewing the lease documentation and FAQ sections for the Gainesville property, brightplace confirmed that the $175 administrative fee and renters insurance requirement are not always disclosed clearly on third-party listing platforms.
The move-in fee breakdown: $65 application fee (as of Q3 2026), $175 administrative fee (as of Q3 2026), and $0 security deposit. Renters insurance with $100,000 Legal Liability to Landlord coverage is required.
An academic year lease typically runs approximately 11.5 months, aligned to university start and end dates, with installments due monthly from August through July. The lease charges a total annual amount divided into 12 equal installments. These installments are not prorated monthly rent payments. Confirm current lease terms directly with the leasing office, as academic year dates shift annually.
The Sarasota location is a general-market community, not student housing. Located at 3203 Nature Circle, Sarasota, FL 34235, it is managed by Concord Management and offers 1, 2, 3, and 4-bedroom floor plans. This University Club Apartments property sits near University Parkway with direct access to I-75. The Mall at University Town Center, Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport, and Siesta Key beach are all within a short drive.
Amenities include a resort-style pool, fitness center, playground, and business center. Select units feature vaulted ceilings and washer/dryer connections. This is a family and professional-oriented property, distinct from the student-focused Gainesville community. Renters arriving at this University Club Apartments from a search result should not assume student housing lease structures apply here.
This property at 5540 19th Street, Lubbock, TX 79407, offers one and two-bedroom unfurnished units. Pricing starts at approximately $679/month for a 1BR and $779/month for a 2BR (as of Q3 2026). The community sits across the street from Lubbock Christian University and on Texas Tech Shuttle Route 19, making it accessible for both LCU students and Texas Tech students who prefer lower price points.
Units feature hardwood-style floors, walk-in closets, and on-site laundry. This property is not affiliated with the Gainesville or Sarasota locations and operates under different management. The honest tradeoff: amenities here are more limited than at the Gainesville property, but the price point is significantly lower.
Two distinct properties use the "University Club" name in Tulsa. The primary one at 1722 S Carson Ave (managed by Horizon Realty Management) offers studio, 1BR, 2BR, and 3BR options. Pricing starts at approximately $1,130/month for a 1BR (as of Q3 2026).
A second, higher-amenity community (universityclubtulsa.com) features granite countertops, wood plank floors, a 6,000 sq ft fitness facility, garage parking, concierge services, and yoga and spin classes. Originally built in 1968 and renovated in 2019, this property targets downtown Tulsa residents and remote workers more than students. The Tulsa Remote program, which offers incentives for remote workers relocating to Tulsa, references this property as a housing option for program participants.

Before committing to any University Club Apartments lease, clarify five things with the leasing office. First, ask whether the lease is individual or joint. This distinction matters for students sharing a unit with roommates. Second, confirm what is included in base rent versus added as fees: furniture, internet, utilities, parking, and trash pickup vary by property.
Third, verify whether the lease aligns with the academic calendar or follows a standard 12-month structure. Fourth, request a full breakdown of move-in fees, including application fees, administrative fees, and whether a security deposit is required. Fifth, ask whether roommate matching is available if you do not have a pre-selected housemate.
For a full checklist of what to cover during a property visit, see brightplace's guide to questions to ask when touring an apartment. Understanding your true monthly cost before signing helps avoid surprises.
