University Housing

All undergraduate (full-time and part-time) and all graduate students (full-time and part-time) are eligible to live in University housing. Students seeking housing are required to sign a full-year housing contract.

Each student must submit a residence hall contract along with a $200 room deposit at the time of reservation. This deposit reserves the room until occupancy and is applied to the spring semester residence hall charge. This deposit is nonrefundable, except in the case of academic dismissal or graduation.

Meal Plans

Meal plans are mandatory for all students living in Residence Halls. Commuter and resident students may purchase additional points separately.  "Points" represent money and can be used at specific food locations throughout the University.

For every point purchased, ARAMARK will deposit bonus points into the account balance (e.g., $100 cash = $110 in points).

Commuter meal plans may also be purchased directly from ARAMARK.
