Housing for First-Year Students

Incoming first-year students are paired together and placed in a residence hall by Residence Life. All residence hall rooms assigned to first-year students are double-rooms, so every incoming student will have a roommate. At the beginning of spring semester, students will be able to choose their roommate and select housing through the lottery process for their sophomore year.

New Student Housing

Current Students Housing Lottery

Housing for continuing students is done through a lottery process, a long-standing tradition. The lottery is utilized for the assignment of rooms and apartments for the following year. The lottery process is based on seniority, meaning seniors are the first to select housing each year.
Your Space Housing Options & Rates

We offer new and current students a variety of living styles that includes 12 traditional residence halls and seven on-campus apartment buildings.
