Campus
Student Housing
In Memphis, a new, modern Student Housing building was opened in August 2017 with two students sharing a Student Studio apartment. Each apartment is furnished with twin beds, a refrigerator, a washer/dryer, and a personal bathroom with a shower. Community facilities are conveniently located throughout the complex. Cars are not needed–the housing is on the main campus and downtown Memphis is near and accessible.
Like everything at Visible Music College, the student housing experience will most surely be unlike what you find at other colleges.

Where can I do all my baking and cooking?

Should I bring a car?
- Visible Music College does not provide on-campus parking spaces for students, however, students are able to add a third-party parking pass to their student account.
- It’s also easy to find a ride from someone in the Visible community if necessary.
Is there a meal plan?
- Included in the cost of housing is access to the Visible Cafe. The Visible Cafe is our version of a meal plan. Monday through Friday we provide breakfast and lunch at our cafe.
- Unlike normal college meal plans, the bulk of what we provide to eat are healthy options instead of fried food and sugar. We encourage healthy lifestyles through food choices that the cafe provides – it helps your brain work!
