The rates below are for housing types for summer housing, May 10 to August 2 (12 weeks). Actual locations offered will be decided in the spring semester. No set contract length is required, students may move out when needed during the summer. Students' accounts are billed for the full summer and then credited for any unused weeks after a proper check-out. Students must be enrolled in summer classes or be eligible for fall classes in order to stay in the summer. An on-campus housing contract for the academic year is not required to stay on campus for summer. No meal plans are offered in the summer, however certain dining locations are open throughout the summer. Students who have fall on-campus housing contracts will be able to remain on-campus between the end of the summer contract and start of the fall contract at the summer rate for their summer building. Summer to fall residents will be notified by Residential Life when they must transition to their fall space.
