About the UMBC Residential Life Housing Portal

We encourage students to log into their housing portal regularly to keep up-to-date about life as a Residential Retriever. The Housing Portal is for current and newly admitted UMBC students to:

  • Apply for housing
  • Review room & roommate information
  • Complete forms and requests related to on-campus housing
  • Review updates and reminders about on-campus housing
  • Recieve messages and reminders for residential students

  • Have a permanent address that is more than 30 miles from UMBC’s campus and is enrolled in a UMBC approved in-person internship in the Baltimore metro area.
