November 2025
The application opens for current residents interested in campus housing for the 2026-27 academic year. Students currently studying abroad who lived on campus during the fall 2025 semester are also eligible to apply for housing. Completing the application will enter you into the lottery along with current residents who are interested in returning to on-campus housing in 2026-27. Completing the application also allows you to search for roommates. Completing an application does not automatically place you in a room or apartment; that is an action you or a member of your roommate pair will take at a later step. You have until Tuesday, February 17 at 11:59 p.m. to complete the application and add a student to your roommate group.
Pro tip! More people will complete applications over time so check back for new roommate matches.

February 24 - 27, 2026
Students who filled out the application will be able to access the system, according to their lottery information, to choose their new space for 2026-27. Be sure to research room types and costs before selecting your new space. Residents interested in Gender Open Housing or a Living Learning Community, including our second year experiences, will select their LLC space at this time.
If you are part of a Roommate Group, only one person should log in to make your selection.
Waitlist
Students who are not able to select their desired space will have the opportunity to join a waitlist at the end of the room selection process. Students with an incomplete application by February 18 will be able to join the waitlist by completing an application after February 28.
Late February/Early March
You must pay the $200 Housing Guarantee Fee within seven days of selecting your space to be guaranteed housing. If you do not, your selected space will be released to other students and your 2026-27 application will be cancelled.
Note: The $200 Housing Guarantee Payment is refundable during the first six days of the seven day payment period. If the payment is submitted on the seventh day of the payment period, there is no refund available.
