How do I Apply?

The Timeline

The First-Year Housing Application will be available in mid-March.  As an admitted first-year student, you can begin the housing application once the housing application is available and as soon as your admissions deposit has been processed by the University and you have activated your Andrew account. If you have not already done so, follow the instructions below to set up your Andrew ID.

You can make changes to your incomplete application up until May 31.  Once you submit your Housing License Agreement, your application is considered complete and you can no longer make changes. 

The deadline to submit your housing application in order to be part of the first round of assignments is May 31st.  We still continue to accept housing applications after this date, but these applications will be processed after the first round of assignments regardless of admissions deposit date. You should submit your dining application at the same time as your housing application.

Setting up your Andrew ID

In order to apply for housing, incoming students need to activate their Andrew ID. Follow these steps to set up your Andrew account:

  1. Obtain your Andrew ID by going to the Enrollment Services website.
  2. Then, set up your Andrew account password with Computing Services by following the instructions for New Undergraduate Students.
  3. Log into the housing application to begin.
