Contact the Residential Life Office at 410-455-8832 for more information about Fall 2013 housing. 

For Returning Students: 

All current residents had an opportunity to select a space on-campus for 2013-2014. Students had to be  be in good financial standing (you must not have a balance of $500 or over), have lived in campus housing for less than 4 years and applied on-line and signed a housing license by March 31st.

All students must sign an on-line license by March 31st to have priority for a space for the 2013-2014 academic year.
This commits your student  to housing and a meal plan (if applicable) for the entire academic year. If your student missed the March 31st deadline they will be added to the wait list and will no longer have priority for a space for the 2013-2014 academic year.

For New Students:
