SUpost has been the Stanford community's classifieds marketplace since 2005. Every trust signal on this page is independently verifiable — verbatim quotes from live Stanford web pages, campus press coverage, public archives, and unprompted word of mouth, each linked to its source. SUpost is independent and not run by Stanford University; these pages list it as a resource, and no endorsement is implied.
Stanford housing offices, student-life pages, and department guides list SUpost as a resource for the Stanford community. Verbatim excerpts, each linked to the live page:
“Check www.craigslist.org and www.supost.com.”
“SU Post is an on-line bulletin board for the Stanford community, but is not managed by Stanford. Only Stanford affiliates have the ability to post an ad.”
“SUPost (think Craigslist but for Stanford affiliates)”
“If you elect to live off campus, Craigslist, Zillow, Padmapper, and SUpost (Stanford-affiliated version of Craigslist) are good places to start your search.”
“Two good places to find housing are craigslist and the website for the Stanford community, SUpost.”
“SUPost — Check for listings of available apartments and roommate requests that are posted here by members of the Stanford community.”
“supost.com: Electronic bulletin board for the Stanford Community”
SUpost is also listed as a resource by Stanford Office of Postdoctoral Affairs — Housing, Stanford R&DE Student Housing — Buying Furniture, Stanford R&DE Student Housing — Sublicensing, Stanford Medicine, Department of Genetics — Postdoc Resources, Stanford Medicine, Neurology — Resident Life, Stanford Medicine, Visiting Clerkships — Housing Resources, and Stanford Medicine, Otolaryngology — Clinician-Scientist Training Program.
“Call it Greg's list. SUPost.com, created by electrical engineering graduate student Greg Wientjes, is modeled after the popular Craigslist website and has gained steam on campus as students move out.”
“This Craigslist of Stanford has some deals on books, but it's best for buying used course readers, not to mention furniture and bikes.”
“He showed me this website, SUpost, where Stanford students publish offers for housing.”
“a widely-used student hub … has long been a integral part of the Stanford experience”
Unprompted, verbatim comments from public Reddit r/stanford threads where students, staff, and researchers pointed a classmate toward SUpost — each links to the original thread.
“There's still a lot of Stanford staff, and grad students, that live off campus and also that sublet often. SUpost has numerous people making such posts on a daily basis.”
“lots of bikes for sale on supost”
“Feel free to try SUPost. Usually there are some graduate students who sublease for the summer.”
“Might be good to go look in SUPost. They usually have a few people leasing out off campus apartments near Menlo Park.”
“There's also a lot of other sublease options under $1600 on SUPost with other grad students/stanford affiliates, especially in menlo park and east palo alto”
“Renting off-campus with roommates will likely be the better financial move, though. Check out Craigslist or SUpost to find people looking for roommates.”
“They then provided only 24 hours for a response… To me this is quite unattractive, especially with no tour of the apartment… I ended up finding something off of supost”
“Airbnb. Or sublet through supost.”
“You'll almost certainly need a roommate. I'd check SUPost for one as most of the housing is close to the university and the roommates are likely all Stanford affiliates!”
“A lot of people give away stuff before moving out… Check supost.com people sell / give stuff away for free.”
“you will probably have better luck posting this on SUpost and Stanford housing groups on facebook!”
“I'd suggest making a post on Reddit or on SUpost requesting a headshot and many student photographers will contact you with a low rate!”
“try Supost sometimes there are good part time remote jobs on there from stanford startups that definitively pay better”
