Fall 2025 – Spring 2026 Returners Housing Reapplication and Assignment Process
We are excited to see you back on campus and we are looking forward to an exciting Spring 2025 semester. We are preparing for Fall 2025 and it is time to make a plan for housing. As a current, on campus resident, we invite you to live on campus for the next academic year. Due to high demand, guaranteed first year student housing, limited space availability, and student feedback, our process to reapply for on campus housing has changed. We are now at the following step in the process:
- Step 4: Waitlist Option Page:
- In the case that you are not chosen for a lottery number/time slot, you can opt into a waitlist. This does not guarantee you a space on campus, however, housing availability frequently changes as cancellations occur and students on the waitlist often receive the option to live on campus. You can choose from the options below:
- o Option 1: Waitlist until May 15, 2025
- o Option 2: Waitlist until June 15, 2025
- o Option 3: Waitlist until July 1, 2025
- o Option 4: Waitlist until on campus space is available
- o Option 5: Decline the waitlist and pursue off-campus housing.
- After the date on your selected waitlist has passed, and you have not been notified of available on-campus housing, we will notify and remove you from the waitlist.
- Step 5: Research Available Options
- Review the list of available housing options (rooms or apartments) before your selection time.
- Consider factors like cost, proximity to campus, and compatibility with your preferences and your roommate group’s preferences.
- When your time slot opens, you will be able to select from rooms available within the system and assign your completed roommate group in to the room if space is available.
- Roommates will be assigned to the same timeslots together and any of the roommates can select the room spaces for the group.
- We encourage you all to be in good communications of what you are all wanting when selecting your rooms, if you are selected for timeslots.
- Note: Roommate groups must be finalized within the reapplication process. Groups cannot be changed or created once room selection begins or after a space has been chosen. Ensure all group members accept the group invite before selection begins.
- Step 6: Review and Save Confirmation
- Once you’ve chosen your room, review the details (room info., roommate info., etc.) and save the confirmation.
- Due to high volumes of students applying during this reapplication period, we will be focusing diligently on any technical issues that may arise. Please watch your email communications for any updates with the system during the reapplication process. This is also the purpose to the plan of having the reapplication being open for two weeks, so students have the time to reapply for housing.
