Frequently Asked Questions

Who is eligible for Winter Break Housing?

Students will be charged a standard rate of $248.91 for their room. No meal plan will be available for the winter session. Information on whether or not a Dining location will be open in the Student Center will be forthcoming.

Applications need to be submitted through MyHousing by 11:59pm on Sunday, December 3, 2023 in order for the student to move in on Monday, December 25, 2023 or  Monday, January 1, 2024.  Applications will continue to be accepted after Sunday, December 3, 2023, based on availability of spaces.
