December 23-January 15

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 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 housing applications will be available starting November 1, 2026 on the Housing Portal, click "Housing Applications" and select "Winter 2027." Students should submit the 2026 winter break housing application by December 4, 2026. 

Winter Break Housing Rate

There is no cost to remain on campus for winter break (December 23 - January 15). 

All residence halls will be open with limited services. Students who only need housing for a portion of the break should note that within the winter application to have their room booking adjusted accordingly. Students applying for winter break housing do not need to complete a late stay request. 

  • Fall late stay will be allowed through December 22 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 15th at no additional cost, if students need housing prior to this point, they must apply for winter housing.
