Winter Break Housing

We plan for all residence halls to be open for winter break with limited services. Students must complete a winter housing application to remain on campus for winter break. This will ensure proper identification (ID) card access to your building and allow the use of your food plan. Please note that students living on South Campus need to manage their own transportation to East Campus to access the dining hall.

Winter Break Housing Rate

There is no cost associated with winter break housing, but student must have completed the Winter Break Housing application to remain on campus during winter break.

All residence halls will be open with limited services. Students applying for winter break housing do not need to complete a late stay request.

  • Fall late stay will be allowed through December 24 at no additional cost, if students need housing past this point, they must apply for winter housing.
  • Spring early arrival will be allowed starting January 16 at no additional cost, if students need housing prior to this point, they must apply for winter housing.

Winter housing applications will be available starting November 1, 2025 on the Housing Portal, click "Housing Applications" and select "Winter 2026." Students should submit the 2026 winter break housing application by December 5, 2025.
