Waitlist Information

Available Units

Due to high demand, University Housing operates an annual waitlist process for future residents. The waitlist is open for only two weeks each March and typically applies to move-ins between May and September or until the waitlist for a specific floor plan is exhausted Outside of this period, from October through April, housing is offered on a first-come, first-served basis, depending on availability. If you see a unit you’re interested in, please contact the University Housing Office for next steps.


How the Waitlist Works

The waitlist is managed online through a quick application process. Be prepared with the following:

  • The online application takes approximately 15 minutes to complete.
  • You will be asked to provide information about your affiliation, desired floor plans, and move-in timeframe. 
  • A valid credit card is required to pay the non-refundable $50 waitlist fee. 
    • No other forms of payment will be accepted. 
  • Upon submission, you will receive a confirmation email with your payment receipt and waitlist confirmation. 
  • Current tenants are not eligible to join the waitlist. 
  • Important: Each phase (Phase One, Two, and Three) has its own separate waitlist. 
    • If you are interested in more than one phase, you must complete a separate application and pay the $50 fee for each.
