A two-person room in a University of Kansas hall costs from $7,242 for the 2026–27 academic year, with utilities included and a KU dining plan required on top. I could not find a verified Lawrence rent figure, so private rental is left out.
Details come from KU Housing’s rates page, checked on 23 October 2026. Rates are per person, and the page says a KU dining plan is required for a residence hall contract and is not included. Apartment List’s Lawrence page showed no rent figures.
