2013-2014 Housing Selection Process
We are excited for you to join the Aurora University residential community! Living on campus offers many benefits and contributes to a well-rounded college experience.
How do I apply for housing?
New incoming freshmen or transfer students will receive a housing contract and deposit card through the Office of Admission, or they can download a housing contract and deposit card. Students interested in living on campus are strongly encouraged to complete and submit their housing contract as soon as possible to increase their chances of receiving their preferred housing assignment.
How are housing assignments made and when can I expect to receive my assignment?
Housing assignments for new incoming students are made on a first-come, first-served basis in consultation with admission counselors and athletic coaches. Residence hall, room and roommate assignments will be mailed to new students in July 2013. Roommates are strongly encouraged to contact one another prior to moving on to campus in the fall.
The Office of Residence Life reserves the right to assign students to any available halls or room based on the best interest of the student and the university.
What if I have a specific roommate request?
Specific roommate requests may be made when completing a housing contract. While we do our best to make assignments based upon preferences indicated on the housing contract, we cannot guarantee meeting all of your preferences. Please ensure that your intended roommates write your name on their housing contracts to indicate that the roommate request is mutual. If you have already submitted your housing contract, please make sure you and your intended roommates e-mail us directly at reslife@aurora.edu.
What if I have a medical condition that should be considered in making my housing assignment?
Please indicate the medical condition on your housing contract. A doctor's note must be provided as documentation. If you already have submitted your housing contract, please forward the doctor's note to reslife@aurora.edu.
Returning Residents/Current Students Housing Selection Process for 2013-2014
During the spring semester, the Office of Residential Life oversees the housing selection process for current students to select their room and roommate assignment for the following academic year. A housing contract must be submitted online in order to be eligible to participate in the selection process. The in-person selection process will allow students to select from the available single, deluxe suite or standard rooms. All forms and information can be found on SpartanNet, or by clicking the links below.
