Where everything is happening!

Not the absolute nicest apartment in Etown but with so many Kellogg students it’s the place to be. Great indoor basketball courts and gym facilities and of course the pool in the summer is great!

Great building, amazing social experience

E2 is the place to be for Kellogg students - the apartments are very nice, the location is great, and it feels like an upscale adult dorm building. All the amenities are very nice and it's great to have an apartment that is so pet-friendly. Maintenance service is very fast as well.

Amenities are very good and it has the most Kellogg students. The actual apartments are pretty average for what you pay for!

Love living in E2. Definitely a little pricier, but it's worth it to be near everyone. Facilities are great and staff is very responsive.

E2

Maintenance and building management is very responsive whenever you have an issue. The walls are highly insulated so you aren’t disrupted at night by neighbors. There is a basketball court inside the building and the outdoor patio is great for social events and gatherings. The only downside is the gym in the building is fairly small.

Great amenities and social life

E2 is the best place in Evanston for social life given the huge density of students in the building.

E2 - 3 Bed

Overall, E2 is a good place to live and arguably the closest to the Global Hub. I like that there is a strong Kellogg community here. Everything is good enough, nothing spectacular. Maintenance and management are responsive.

Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at E2 Apartments
Downtown Evanston has everything you need. E2 is walkable to campus, a Target, and plenty of restaurants, as well as Metra and L stations to get to Chicago. Right across the street is a Subway, a Thai restaurant, and a pizza place, plus there’s a 7-Eleven about a block away, so you’re very close to options if you need food in a pinch.
Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at John Evans Building
Close to downtown Evanston but a bit far from E2/the reserve. One of closest apartments to Trader Joes/Whole Foods/Jewel Osco while also being close to campus. Very close to the lake!

Downtown Evanston has everything you need from a downtown including grocery stores, restaurants, and convenience stores.
Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at Centrum Evanston
Downtown Evanston is great - plenty of great food within walking distance, Metra and El trains right nearby, a really nice place to be. Only downside is it's far from school and the only truly walkable grocery store is a Whole Foods, which can get expensive. Overall, wouldn't want to live elsewhere though.

Close to grocery stores and restaurants. Very easy access to Lake Michigan as well!
Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at Albion Evanston
There isn't much to do here, but that's true pretty much everywhere in Evanston. We're in walking distance to all of "downtown" Evanston, so restaurants / fast food / subway, etc. It's a slightly longer walk than desired to Kellogg, but that's fine.
Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at Optima Horizons
The apartment is central to downtown and is walking distance to most bars, restaurants, shops, beach, etc. Evanston is a bit of a sleepy town (especially during the pandemic...I've been told it was much more vibrant pre-pandemic).
Reviewed by Kellogg MBA Student living at 1454 Oak Ave
I live just south of the main downtown area, and it's the perfect intersection of being close to the action but also a bit removed when you want some quiet. I like being a in a more residential pocket, so there is slightly less foot traffic and really nice areas to walk around with a dog, etc.
