Overview

The Scion Group focuses on improving the living experience for students in both on-campus and off-campus housing. Established in 1999, it has become a leading owner and operator in the student housing market in North America. Scion recognizes that students have diverse needs, which is why it operates under four distinct brands, each catering to different preferences and budgets. This approach allows them to provide customized living solutions, from affordable options to more upscale accommodations. The company generates revenue primarily through rental payments from students living in their properties, as well as from advisory services offered to universities and property owners looking to enhance their student housing offerings. Scion's goal is to raise the standard of student living by ensuring that their properties are tailored to the specific needs of each community they serve, maintaining a national presence while making a local impact.
