Your living costs at Aero can be covered by financial aid, just like on-campus housing.

These funds can be used to pay charges at Aero. Normal payment deadlines will continue to apply.
Nearly all the residents at Aero are students at the University of Florida. The per-person contracts are also designed with students in mind. Nonetheless, Aero is an Equal Opportunity housing provider and welcomes applications from non-students. Family members are welcome as well, subject to occupancy limits. Because of the need to match student roommates, non-students must apply together with enough roommates to fill the desired residence.
Aero has a monitored fire-sprinkler system, along with electronic locks plus individually locking bedroom doors. Community courtesy patrols are provided at select times. Management staff are also on-site 24×7 and can be reached by a 24-hour phone number.
Aero is a pet-friendly community, subject to limits on animals and breed. The community is smoke-free in all indoor and adjacent spaces. Guests are welcome at all times, subject to the consent of roommates and security considerations. Overnight guests are welcome, with limits on the number of days and guests.
Aero is just blocks from the southwest corner of the UF campus. Five bus lines from Gainesville RTS stop within as little as a quarter-mile from Aero on 24th, and run to the center of the UF campus as often as every 10 minutes.
