Housing Dates and Deadlines

* All dates are subject to change.

* Summer 2020 Housing is open ONLY to students who are currently living in Housing. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation, we will not be able to offer a space to anyone not already in Housing. 

NOTE: Due to significantly reduced occupancy for Fall 2020, we have not yet requested a Security Deposit or a Fee Payment from 2020-21 applicants. Once we determine who is eligible and authorized to live on campus this fall, Housing will contact those applicants and request their deposit and fee payment at that time. Our current timeline is mid-July 2020, but this is subject to change.

Applications received after the above-noted priority application dates will be waitlisted and considered for Spring 2021 housing at the earliest.
