Apply to the Residence Halls
Step One
- Agree to the housing contract
- Submit an initial payment of $400
This $400 fee will be applied to the student’s housing costs in the fall. Students who are expecting to receive a financial aid award of $15,000 or more can elect to use their award to cover the $400 payment. If financial aid has not been awarded yet, there would be no payment required at the time of application.
Step Two
Students who apply early will receive an email in the spring when the second part of the housing application is available. At that time students will be able to:
- Indicate hall and room-type preferences
- Request roommate
- Fill out roommate questionnaire
All incoming students who apply prior to the housing priority date of May 1 will have equal consideration in placement.
