RESIDENTIAL SERVICES

Important Steps to be Aware of

• Submit your tuition deposit to gain access to the housing contract
  • The timing of your tuition deposit does not provide an advantage for receiving your top preferences, but you must submit your tuition deposit to gain access to the contract no later than May 26 to ensure you can submit your contract by June 1. 
• Between March 1 and June 1, go to the Housing Portal to submit your housing preferences and contract, along with any roommate groups and housing accommodation requests. 
  • After submitting your preferences, you may make changes by going back into your contract. Updates are only available through June 1.
