Guaranteed Housing Process
Prospective first-year students who are admitted through Admissions and Financial Aid for the fall term and pay their $300 enrollment fee by May 1 and their $325 housing deposit by their designated due date are guaranteed on-campus housing. This guarantee is good for three years, provided that all housing application and deposit deadlines for each subsequent year have been met. First-Year students who pay their deposits after the deadline will lose their housing guarantee and will be assigned rooms as they become available.
Non-Guaranteed Housing Process
If you pay your enrollment deposit after May 1, or if you miss the deadline included in your housing packet, you will not be guaranteed a place in on-campus housing. However, we have another option for you, which is known as our Non-Guaranteed Housing Process! We have a robust wait list that is very successful at providing students with a place to live on campus. You will need to pay your housing deposit, sign the contract, and submit the application online. Then, as rooms become available, we will review the wait list in order of application date and offer open rooms to students. You should expect to hear from us over the summer about your assignment, if we are able to offer you a room.
Room and Roommate Preferences
When you complete your housing application, you can indicate the type of first-year accommodation you desire. Although we will make a sincere effort to satisfy your request, we are not always able to grant your preferences.
If you wish to request a particular roommate, you must both list each other on your applications. If we do not receive both of your roommate preferences by June 1, 2021, then we cannot guarantee that we will be able to honor your roommate preferences. Also, your participation in a Living Learning Community may preclude your choosing a roommate.
