Off Campus season 2: key information

- Season 2 renewed before season 1 even aired
- Justin Kohl (Josh Heuston) won't be returning for new episodes
- The rest of the core cast is expected to return
- Rumored to be based on the third book, The Score
- Allie Hayes (Mika Abdalla) and Dean Di Laurentis (Stephen Kalyn) tipped to be romantic leads

The ice has never been hotter than Off Campus on Prime Video (well, if you completely overlook Heated Rivalry, anyway).

Season 1 has been a smash hit with fans and critics alike since its launch on May 13, adapting the first novel in Elle Kennedy's book series of the same name.

Hannah (Ella Bright) and Garrett (Belmont Cameli) took on the roles of our romantic leads, with fans quickly praising the pair for their "insane" on-screen chemistry.

But much like Bridgerton, we can expect each season of Off Campus to center on a different couple, meaning that the already renewed Off Campus season 2 will head in a slightly different direction.

Luckily for us, we've already got a handle on what that might look like. From a shock cast departure to who we think will take the limelight next, here's everything we know about Off Campus season 2 so far.

As of right now, release date predictions for season 2 are sketchy. Production hasn't even started yet, and we've got no idea when this might change.

Based on this, we can assume that the earliest we'd see new episodes is mid 2027, but my hunch tells me that we might be waiting until 2028.

Off Campus season 2 trailer: is there one?

Don't be silly! It took us until the end of April 2026 to get one for season 1, so expect the first full trailer to arrive around four weeks before the second season does.

We're expecting the following main cast members to return for Off Campus season 2:

  • Ella Bright as Hannah Wells
  • Belmont Cameli as Garrett Graham
  • Mika Abdalla as Allie Hayes
  • Antonio Cipriano as John Logan
  • Jalen Thomas Brooks as John Tucker
  • Stephen Kalyn as Dean Di Laurentis
  • Steve Howey as Phil Graham
  • Julia Sarah Stone as Jules Logan
  • Khobe Clarke as Beau Maxwell
  • Phillipa Soo as Scarlett

Sadly, we already know that Justin Kohl (Josh Heuston) won't be returning for new episodes.

In an interview with TV Guide, showrunner Louisa Levy was asked if Justin would return. "Not next season, but I love Josh and I would not write him off if I can find a way to bring Justin back at some point," she said.

"We never got a chance to meet Stella, who is the person he ends up with in the book. So maybe we'll find a way to fold him into a future season. We don't have him [available] next season, but never say never."

If rumors are true, Off Campus season 2 will be adapting Kennedy's third novel in the series, The Score. Alongside online speculation, this comes from the trailer and the season 1 finale setup for Allie and Dean, as it's implied they will be the next romantic leads.

"I think more than anything, it's almost just a way to reset the clock a little bit," Abdalla told People Magazine. "We get so much Allie and Dean in the beginning, or in the first season, that is so fun and great and cool, but I think they're flying a little too close to the sun right now."

She continues, "insecurity that [Allie] had in the beginning of season 1 is doubled. "Both of these people's fears and insecurities have just been reinforced. And so when we do get to actually explore their relationship, we're starting from an even more damaged, closed-off place. Work needs to be done."

While Levy teased that which book being adapted will be confirmed "very soon," she also told TV Guide about the future of the show, "I have big plans, but I do have to take it one step at a time, one season at a time. Next season we do have the ability to really live in this ensemble world that's really fun."

"Happily ever afters are wonderful and so important for this genre of novel, but they're not that helpful for television because we have to keep telling stories. So part of that was my attempt to give [viewers] the Hannah and Garrett happily ever after that I wanted, that I know fans will want, but still leaving something hanging and some question going into Season 2 of, 'How is this going to be resolved, and how is this going to drive story forward?' I want people to tune in Season 2 and watch what we have in store."

Will there be more seasons of Off Campus?

Logically, the answer is yes. Kennedy's original book series comprises the following five books, each exploring a different romantic relationship at its core:

  • The Deal (Garrett & Hannah)
  • The Mistake (Logan & Grace)
  • The Score (Dean & Allie)
  • The Goal (Tucker & Sabrina)
  • The Legacy (updates on all four couples)

Given that season 2 is set to skip over the second book in order to adapt the third, there's more than enough scope for Off Campus to be renewed for years to come.

Levy added in her TV Guide interview, "I don't have a number in mind. I certainly have plans for the first four [Off Campus books] to begin with, but, as we know, Hunter has his own book. There's some other books in the Briar U world that I would love to be able to do, but for now, I'm really focused on those first four books."

However, there's been no official update from Amazon just yet. It's likely that no further season renewals will happen until after season 2 has started airing, so watch this space.
