Current Student Housing
Rising Sophomores
Housing contracts for rising sophomores open on March 3. Rising sophomores must complete a housing contract and deposit for the following year by March 14. Rising sophomores will be assigned using their housing contract preferences and receive their 2025-2026 housing assignment via SLU email by March 28.
Assignments will not be made in order of contract submission, and will be completed in entirely random order. This ensures fairness throughout the process. Therefore, there is no rush to submit your housing contract. Just submit between March 3- March 14 to be assigned in the first round of assignments. Any contract submissions after March 14 will be assigned on a rolling basis.
Rising Juniors, Seniors and Graduate Students
Rising juniors, seniors and graduate students can complete their housing contract for the next year as early as February 3 and choose a space through the Renew Your Apartment or the Online Selection processes. Current on-campus apartment residents can choose to stay in the same apartment for the next year through the Renew Your Apartment process. Housing contracts need to be submitted before you are able to participate. Restrictions on this process apply.
Sign-up for the Renew Your Apartment process will take place on February 3-17. Students who are going through this process must be able to fill their entire space with other rising junior or senior students. Rising sophomores are not eligible to be pulled in through Renew Your Apartment.
If you are not able or do not wish to participate in the "Renew your Apartment" process, there will be an Online Selection process on February 24-28, where you will select your space online.
More detailed information will be released about each process for rising sophomores and non-residency-required students closer to the process dates.
Students who are not residency required have 30 days from their housing contract submission date to cancel their housing contract. When canceling within 30 days, a $200 cancellation fee will be applied. Cancellations outside of the 30 days will not be accepted. Written documentation must be sent to reslife@slu.edu within 30 days to cancel.
Housing Exemption
If you live with your parents or guardians within a 25-mile radius of campus, are over 21, are married or have children, and have not yet signed a housing contract for the year, you may be eligible for an exemption to the housing requirement.
Exemptions must be requested by June 1 for new students and May 1 for current students, and are not guaranteed. You will receive an official decision in writing from the housing office.
