​Apply for Housing

You are encouraged to apply for housing as early as possible. Students are REQUIRED to live in the halls for the first two (2) years after they graduate from high school (to see the full UW System Board of Regents' policy, please click here).

​Steps for "How to Apply"

  1. Review the living options outlined on the Residential Living website so you can be prepared to complete your online housing contract and application. 
  2. Activate your UWSP account by following the instructions, please click here. 
  3. Login to the UWSP Housing Portal, please click here. 
  4. Select the appropriate application (for example, Academic Year Traditional Hall Application) and follow the instructions to complete it. 
Room Selection Process
Returning students are able to select their room/space for the fall term starting in mid-spring. Students new to the residence halls will be able to select their room/space for the fall term starting in early summer.

  • Timeslots for students to select their hall and room assignment are assigned based on completed credit hours, and then the completion of the housing application.

    • Timeslots are determined by the student's housing contract signed to date. This means the earlier the housing application is completed and signed, the earlier date and time is assigned for a student to select their own space. 

    • Students will receive notifications about the room selection process at a later date. Students are encouraged to check their UWSP email daily for updates, and important information regarding housing.

  • Students with applications completed by the above deadline will then receive a room selection timeslot in their email for the Traditional Hall Selection process. You will receive the email with your selection timeslot and selection instructions on or before March 11. Timeslots are determined by completed credit hours.

NEW STUDENTS
​Housing Assignments 
To qualify for New Student Room Selection, incoming fall semester students MUST have the following complete: 
  • Housing application by June 1, 2021, at 11:59 p.m. 
  • Students who have the above items complete by June 1 will receive a room selection timeslot which will give them access to the room selection. 
  • To determine the student timeslot, Residential Living uses the date that the student signed their housing contract. 
  • After June 1, Residential Living will take everyone who completed a housing application by June 1 and assign a timeslot based on the contract completion date. 
  • Therefore, the earlier the student signed their housing contract, the earlier they will get to select their room. 
  • Timeslots will be emailed to the student's UWSP email account. 
  • Room Selection will occur from mid June.

​​About the Residence Halls

Traditional Residence Halls

  • Set up for double room occupancy. 

  • All halls are set up for "scattered co-ed" room configuration; except for Pray-Sims Hall, which houses all men on the Pray side and all women on the Sims side. 

  • DeBot Quads offer elevators, individual room temperature control, including air conditioning. 

  • Allen Quad residence halls do not offer an elevator (except for Pray-Sims Hall), individual room temperature control, or air conditioning. 

What does "scattered co-ed" mean? Scattered co-ed is defined by those of opposite identifying genders who live in an area of a building and are neighbors to each other (they live on the same floor/wing).
