Applying for Housing 


 

   Welcome Home!     

This page provides information regarding housing assignments for new students.   


Send in Your Deposit!   

Once you are admitted, be sure to send in your $300 reservation deposit!

This starts the application process for housing.  $100 is retained as your housing deposit and the remainder goes toward summer orientation fees.

In early February, housing information for students that have deposited will be sent out in a joint mailing with the Office of the Dean of Students. This mailing includes:

  • Your application materials for housing and meal plans

  • Information about our Summer Orientation and Registration program (SOAR) or our Student Transfer Advising and Registration (STAR)

  • Health Card & Insurance Forms

Your housing application lets you indicate preferences for residence halls and even the roommate you would like to have in the fall.  You can use the Application Guide to help you fill out your application.

Don't have a roommate in mind? No problem. We don't assign roommates until after the second SOAR. If you are still not sure, we do our best to match you with a roommate that shares similar interests and habits.

    Housing Assignment Letters   We send out Housing Assignment Letters to all students the third week of July.  In these letters we confirm room placements and provide home contact information for roommates.

Payment Plans: If you notice that the cost of your housing is different from any initial payment plan you have set up, please contact Student Accounts to make adjustments.


If you have a physical disability or health concern that requires special housing considerations, indicate this on your application and fill out a Request for Accommodation in Housing.
