Returning Student Housing Renewal Applications
Current residents interested in living on campus and signing a 9-month lease for Academic Year 2023-2024 or a 12-month lease for Summer + Academic Year 2023-2024, may complete their application for renewal at any time between February 13th at 1pm and March 3rd at 10am. The application simply lets our office know which of our current residents are interested in participating in the lottery to attain a space on campus. It is not a guarantee that space will be available. During this timeframe, you may complete the application steps and begin searching for roommates. Roommates MUST be confirmed before you can assign a preferred roommate to live with you and before March 3rd at 10am. All confirmed roommates are given the same time slot for room selection.
Time-slots for room selection are randomly assigned by our computer system and are not awarded based on classification, initial application date and time, or any other factor. Timeslots will be emailed to residents on March 8th.
Room selection timeslots open up between March 13th (1pm) and March 30th (10am). A $100 booking payment must be paid by midnight on April 18th to secure the space you selected. Students will only be asked to pay and sign the lease once they have booked a room. Bookings will be deleted/canceled for any student who fails to make their $100 booking payment by the deadline of April 16th.
Please note that you are not guaranteed a specific housing assignment from year to year and may be unable to reserve your current accommodations. Any student who begins the renewal process, but doesn’t select an assignment will not be assigned a room by our office and your renewal application may be canceled.
**NEW POLICY THIS YEAR: ALL STUDENTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO CHECK OUT AT THE END OF SPRING QUARTER, EVEN IF YOU PLAN TO LIVE ON CAMPUS FOR THE SUMMER. YOU MAY RETURN TO CAMPUS AND CHECK INTO YOUR SUMMER SUITE OR 12 MONTH APARTMENT BEGINNING AT 1PM ON TUESDAY, MAY 30TH. THIS INCLUDES ALL SPECIAL GROUPS AS WELL.
Students who do not pay the booking payment by midnight on April 16th, 2023, must reapply for on-campus housing, beginning June 1st, which is a $250 non-refundable application fee.
