HOUSING

Current and potential students seeking housing, beginning with Spring Term 2024, must complete a housing application with questions regarding housing preferences and other related matters. The completion of the housing application is integral to BYU's preparation for accommodating students, which will streamline the housing process for all individuals. Filling out the housing application does not mean BYU has reached a decision regarding the student's admission status, nor does it influence BYU's admission decision-making process. In order to complete a housing application, a person must first submit an admission application to BYU.

For their first two semesters as a BYU student, all single undergraduate students must live (1) in BYU On-Campus Housing, (2) in BYU Off-Campus Contracted Housing, or (3) with qualifying family members. This applies to all single BYU undergraduate students, including transfer students, who are matriculated, meaning they have been admitted to a degree-seeking program.

Students must submit a housing application. Students do not need to wait until they are admitted to submit the housing application. Newly admitted students eligible for Single Housing will receive a message on their message board located under the “Account” tab indicating their contracting date and time for Spring, Summer, and Fall-Winter on February 26, 2024 after 5:00 PM. Further details may be found by reviewing the New Admit Housing Checklist and by clicking the "View Contracting Information" button to the right.

Apartments for 19 and Over and Returning Resident students will be available for Fall-Winter. For the best possibility of obtaining On-Campus Housing in a 19 and Over and Returning Residents apartment, please submit your housing application as early as possible. Students do not need to wait until they are admitted to submit the housing application. Further contracting details may be found by clicking the "View 19 and Over and Returning Residents Contracting Information" button to the right. Newly admitted students are encouraged to review the New Admit Housing Checklist.

Petitions for exceptions to the Student Housing Policy are submitted by students who are currently required to stay in BYU On-Campus Housing or BYU Off-Campus Contracted Housing.

Students living with qualifying family members must submit documentation.

Students who are not admitted to BYU but are attending BYU Hawaii, BYU Idaho, or Ensign College may live in BYU Off-Campus Contracted Housing after submitting enrollment verification. BYU Salt Lake Center, BYU Flex GE, and BYU English Language Center students may live in BYU Off-Campus Contracted Housing, if their student status is verified through the BYU Housing office.

Students who are trying to sell their contract for an Off-Campus BYU-contracted property may submit a request to have their contract posted under the available bedspaces pages on the BYU Residence Life website.
