Apply for Housing

Once you receive your packet (it will be automatically mailed to you after you have paid the academic deposit), complete it right away. We strongly recommend that students complete the information requested, being as honest as possible. Remember the choices you make (neat person, morning person, etc.) will determine who your roommate will be.

Return the application/contract and $200.00 housing deposit in the envelope provided as soon as possible. It is important to apply early to increase your chances of getting your preferences. Late applicants may have to wait for a room assignment and may be assigned to temporary housing if space is not immediately available when you apply. When the assignment process begins, assignments are made on a first-come, first served basis, based on the date your application and deposit are received.
