Celebrating John Perez: A Rent Free Win Worth Sharing

Celebrating John Perez: Winning a Year of Rent Free™ with MrBeast and Bilt

At American Campus Communities, we believe student housing should be more than just a place to live-it should be a community where students thrive academically, socially, and personally. That's why we're thrilled to celebrate ACC resident John Perez, who recently won a full year of free rent playing Rent Free™, an interactive game show hosted by Bilt in partnership with celebrity MrBeast.

Bilt, the membership program designed for where you live, offers exclusive rewards and Neighborhood Benefits to its members. Each month, Bilt Members can participate in Rent Free™, a fun and engaging game show featuring a celebrity host, for a chance to win free rent. John's incredible win during the special MrBeast edition highlights how Bilt and ACC are creating meaningful moments of recognition and support for our residents.

John brought incredible energy to this experience, and we're proud to help share his story. Moments like this are about more than a surprise or a celebration. They highlight what's possible when strong partnerships come together to create memorable resident experiences.

Our collaboration with Bilt reflects a shared commitment to supporting residents in ways that feel relevant, exciting, and rewarding. For residents, financial support of any kind can have a meaningful impact, and we're always encouraged by opportunities that bring more value to the resident experience. At ACC, we're focused on creating communities where students love living. That means continuing to invest in experiences, partnerships, and opportunities that help residents feel seen, supported, and connected.

We're grateful to Bilt for partnering with us on this moment, and most of all, we're thrilled for John. Congratulations, John, and thank you for letting us celebrate alongside you.
