The award-winning University CoWork office prides itself on being the first full-service business development center in the southern part of the Windy City. In addition to offering a fully equipped, modern workspace with all the amenities a business needs to grow and thrive, it also serves as a place that provides a supportive business community, where ideas and visions can be cultivated and acted upon in a professional and safe establishment.
Here, the chic and airy spaces were set up in a way that allows everyone to harness the power of creativity and productivity in both the common areas and the private offices. In fact, the entire business center is equipped with state-of-the-art ergonomic furniture, ultra-fast internet, 24/7 access, and printing and scanning services. Members can also access fully equipped conference rooms or podcast rooms. Meanwhile, new members can choose to work from flex desks, dedicated desks or private offices, or they can sign up for University CoWork’s Virtual Accelerator program.
The basic package comes with perks like virtual workshops, business matchmaking, meetings with potential partners, access to capital and building business credit. Or, by upgrading to the Premium Package, one will also receive four insightful business courses. Otherwise, the MasterCourse Producer option is ideal for creators who wish to explore the possibility of launching their very own course, through which they can increase clout and revenue, as well as attract students.
Besides the many fantastic office perks, University CoWork members also pinpoint that the overall community vibes are both extremely supportive and incredibly fun, which is what makes this coworking space stand out from the crowd. Of course, the location at 6127 S. University Ave. also has its own advantages as there aren’t any other shared office spaces in the South Loop of Chicago that offer the kind of unique services that University CoWork provides to its members. Finally, the area is also quite walkable and bikeable, so it can be reached by public transportation. The coworking space also offers free parking spaces to all members at all hours of the day.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Want to get a feel for the workspace before signing up? Schedule a tour to experience 6127 South University Avenue and envision your workday in this dynamic environment. All you need to do is fill out this form, indicating your preferred date and time, and we'll be happy to host you.

Adaptability is at the core of coworking, so membership options are always designed to cater to your changing work requirements and team dynamics. Most spaces offer month-to-month memberships, enabling you to adjust your workspace to your changing needs. Whether your business is growing or downsizing – or you just want to upgrade to a more private setting – you always have the flexibility to make the changes you need.
While your membership agreement may have specific terms regarding changes, don’t hesitate to reach out to University CoWork to discuss accommodating your adjustments.
-
For spontaneous collaboration and interaction, open desks provide an open and flexible environment. If you prefer a dedicated space with shared community elements, dedicated desks offer a great balance between personal space and interaction.
On the other hand, private offices are best suited for focused work and private interactions. They're ideal for solo workers as well as teams seeking a dedicated space, shielded from distractions.
Choosing the ideal coworking arrangement for you is about aligning your workspace with your work style, team dynamics, and project requirements.
-
Whether you're a day pass holder or a monthly member, you can access most amenities. Meeting rooms do require prior scheduling, and private offices are reserved for those with subscriptions. However, the lounge, kitchen, and breakout spaces are open to all. Complimentary services are also available regardless of membership tier, while ancillary services can be purchased separately or negotiated with University CoWork.
-
If you’re seeking flexible access, the monthly membership at 6127 South University Avenue provides 24/7 access to our workspace. Hourly and day passes, however, are typically limited to regular business hours.

Why Choose University CoWork
In business since: 2018
University CoWork opened in 2018 as the first full-service business development center south of the Loop in Chicago with one goal: to develop the capacity of our business / non-profit members and underinvested surrounding community.
