The same finish package, regardless of square footage
Whether a resident chooses the compact S1 or the larger S2, the finish quality inside every studio at INTRO Columbus is identical. Square footage changes the layout, not the standard.
2 studio layouts: pick the footprint that fits
Both studio layouts share the same 1-bath finish package. S1 is the most compact, efficiency-first footprint, while S2 adds a defined dining area and a room-dividing storage console. Studios start at $1,899 per month. See current availability on the floor plans page.
The most efficient studio in the community. A single open volume holds the sleeping and living area near the windows, with a dedicated desk nook for focused study, while the kitchen sits at the opposite end behind an L-shaped run of quartz counters. A separate glass-enclosed shower, built-in wine storage shelving, and an in-unit washer and dryer closet complete the layout. The plan for a resident who wants a tight, well-organized footprint where every square foot does double duty.
View Floor Plans & Availability →The larger of the two studio layouts, built around a real division between living and sleeping. A freestanding storage console separates the sofa and coffee table area from the bed and desk zone, giving this plan more of a full-apartment feel. A two-top dining table sits between the kitchen and the sleeping area, something the smaller studio doesn't have room for, and the kitchen runs along its own wall with a full L-shaped counter. A walk-in closet and glass-enclosed shower round out the plan. The layout for a resident who wants distinct zones for cooking, dining, working, and sleeping without stepping up to a full one-bedroom.

What a day at INTRO Columbus actually looks like
Before heading to campus, residents can get a workout in at the fitness center, which spans over 5,000 square feet of cardio, strength, and functional training space.
Between classes, private study pods, the library, and collaborative meeting rooms give residents a quiet, dedicated place to work that isn't the studio itself.
The resident lounge, complete with game-day viewing spaces and a game lounge with arcade and billiards, is where the evening slows down after a full day of classes.
On weekends, the outdoor courtyard sundeck is an easy first stop. The Short North is about a 5-minute walk south on High Street, and COTA Line 2 runs along High Street 7 days a week. Ohio State students ride COTA free with a BuckID.
