Attend an information session at your college/community to learn more about housing options for 2018-19. See schedule »
Apply online during the Priority Housing Application Period (April 16-23, 2018).
Guaranteed Students
Apply during the Priority Housing Application Period to retain your housing guarantee and become eligible to participate in room selection activities.
All deadlines and guarantee conditions will be strictly enforced. Late applicants will forfeit any existing housing guarantee and will be placed on the non-guaranteed waitlist.
Non-Guaranteed Students
Students without a housing guarantee will be placed on the housing waitlist at their applied-for-community.
Non-guaranteed waitlist applications will not be considered until all housing guarantees at all communities have been honored.
Students with housing guarantees will be invited to select their own housing. A point system is used to determine the order in which applicants will be invited to select housing, either individually or as part of a group.
