What does housing look like for transfer students?

Housing for transfer students is guaranteed, and we are looking forward to welcoming you to our campus community!

Transfer students are typically housed in double rooms. If there is a medical/documented need for a single or other style room, students should reach out to the Academic Resource Center to start the housing accommodation process.
