NEW STUDENT HOUSING
Picture of dorm at Shorter

After you have been admitted to the university, the following steps must be taken to ensure on-campus housing:

 

Fill out housing questionnaire and mail to:

Office of Admissions
315 Shorter Avenue, Campus Box 32
Rome, GA 30165

The deadline for housing applications is May 31st, 2013. An assignment cannot be made until both the form and deposit have been received. On-campus housing cannot be guaranteed after this deadline.

Priority is given on a first-come, first-served basis according to the date all forms have been received. The first round of assignments will be made in early June. Once a room assignment has been made, this information will be available in the student’s university-issued Scholar account.

Keep in mind that all returning students receive priority housing. With rising enrollment in past years, there has been an increased demand for residence hall rooms and space is limited; new students should plan to have all forms submitted no later than May 31st, 2013.
