Parents Section

We want your college student to be successful throughout their career at West Liberty University. They need a good foundation and support to gain this success. Hilltop Acres meets every need that your student will have while in college so they can achieve what they came here for in an enjoyable atmosphere.

Individual leasing means peace of mind for you. Your financial responsibility is only for your student’s space unlike many apartments or rental houses where a joint lease is signed. If a roommate transfers to another school or moves out of Hilltop Acres for any reason, you do not have to worry about having to cover their portion of rent. This is just another reason why Hilltop Acres is your student’s best housing option!

Our maintenance staff will respond to your student’s maintenance issues quickly and professionally. Hilltop Acres offers 24-hour emergency maintenance as well so that your student’s comfort is not affected.

Hilltop Acres has three spacious floor plan options so you will easily be able to find one to suit their needs. We have two-bedroom, three- bedroom, and four-bedroom apartment homes. Each apartment comes fully furnished and move-in ready.

If your student does not have a roommate in mind, we can find them one! Each roommate will fill out a Roommate Matching form so that we know what they are looking for in a roommate. During the summer, we spend weeks looking at these preferences and matching them up with the best person we can find!

While the main focus of your student’s college career will be about graduating and getting a fulfilling job, they also need to have fun along the way. At Hilltop Acres, your student will create life-long relationships and connections that will make them even more successful. Our great staff plans monthly resident events to get them involved.
