New Student: incoming students who have never attended 麻豆精品视频 or are transferring to 麻豆精品视频 or students who have attended 麻豆精品视频 previously but are choosing to reside on campus for the first time.

The 2025-2026 First Year Housing Contract will be available to complete starting Wednesday, December 11th, at 9am. All incoming FTIC students are required to live on campus unless they live within the 30 mile radius or receive an approved exemption. Review First Year Housing Requirement for further information. FTIC students do not sign up on the waitlist. Any student needing housing for Spring 2025 can complete the housing contract in their Residential Self-Service which can be found in my麻豆精品视频 under the Student Services card

New Student Housing Process Guide

Below is important information about the housing contract.

  • You must be admitted to the University in order to submit a housing contract. 
  • A $125 nonrefundable application fee is required before you can submit your housing contract. Application fees are not covered by Loans, Grants, or Scholarships.
  • In this process, you will be asked to sign the 2025-2026 Student Room/Food Service Contract. The contract is a legal, binding document for the entire academic year (Fall and Spring semesters), lasting nine months.
  • For Spring only students, you are signing a housing contract only for the spring semester.
  • If you are under the age of 19, a parent or guardian will be required to complete the parental verification form sent via email. This has to be completed in order to receive a housing assignment at a later date.
  • If you submit a housing contract and then decide not to attend 麻豆精品视频, cancellation fees will be assessed. You can review this policy here.

For assistance with completing the housing contract,  our step-by-step how-to video that will guide you through the entire process.

Once the housing contract and parental verification are completed, the student will be added to a roommate matching group within 24 hours through Residential Self-Service. At that point, students can search for potential roommates within their group based on 11 different attributes provided in the housing contract. Additionally, students can create a Roommate Profile under Personal Information, allowing them to further describe themselves. This profile can be visible during the roommate matching process to help facilitate better connections.

Already have a desired roommate in mind? No problem! You can search for that person in Residential Self-Service and match with them there. If your chosen roommate does not appear in the search results, they likely haven't completed the housing contract yet. Check with them to ensure it is complete before contacting our office.

We encourage you to take the roommate matching search into your own hands! If you do not participate in the roommate matching process, you will be assigned random roommates.

The 麻豆精品视频 Housing office will alert all first year students of their housing assignments in mid-June for the full academic year. We will communicate this information to the student鈥檚 麻豆精品视频 email address. We recommend checking that email regularly as it is the main form of communication used by the University. First Year students are auto assigned by a staff member in our office according to living preferences provided in their housing contract.

The 麻豆精品视频 Housing office will alert all new incoming students for the spring semester of their housing assignment in mid-November. We will communicate this information to the student鈥檚 麻豆精品视频 email address. We recommend checking that email regularly as it is the main form of communication used by the University.

Housing Waitlist Procedure

Our office manages a waiting list for any new student wanting to live on campus who are not FTIC students for the academic year. There is limited on campus space available for any new student who is not required to live on campus. Below is the waitlist process.

  • You will need to log into your my麻豆精品视频 account and navigate to Residential Self-Service located under the Student Services Card.
  • You will add yourself to the 25-26 Housing Waitlist under the Room Selection/Waitlist section.
      • You can view your position on the list after you have added your name.
      • You can remove yourself from the list at any point on this same page. If you remove yourself and then you need to be added back to the list, you will go to the bottom of the waiting list.
  • When our staff starts working through the list, you will receive an email via 麻豆精品视频 student email address notifying you that a spot is available. You will have 48 hours to complete the New Student Housing contract to receive the assignment. If you must have a parental verification of your contract, this must be completed within the 48 hour period as well.
    • If you decline the offer, your name will be removed from the list.
    • If you do not respond, your name will be placed at the bottom of the waiting list.

Note, once you sign the housing contract, you are signing a legal, binding document for the entire academic year. If you need to request a cancellation of your contract, you can find the process on our Appeals & Cancellation page.
