Christmas & Summer Housing

Christmas Housing

Christmas interim housing is allowed on specific days between the fall and spring semester for residents in the resident halls and student apartments who meet the qualifications. The halls are completely closed for all residents, including those approved for Christmas housing, when the university is closed to honor the Christmas holiday. Residents who are registered for spring classes and assigned to a room may leave their personal belongings in their room without charge. Students who need to stay in the residence halls or student apartments during Christmas housing dates must apply by filling out a Christmas housing application.

To qualify for Christmas interim housing, students must be registered for spring classes and assigned to a room for the spring semester.

The residence halls close the Saturday after the last day of the semester by 5pm; those who are not approved to live in Christmas housing must check out of their room (but are allowed to leave their belongings in their room as long as they are registered for the spring semester).

Apply by filling out the Christmas housing application available on the MyHousing portal. Christmas housing charges do apply.

Summer Housing

Summer interim housing is allowed on specific days between the spring and fall semester for residents who meet the qualifications. Students who need to stay in the summer housing must apply by filling out a summer housing application online.
