2022-2023 Housing Signup

Central Michigan University's campus residency policy requires that first and second-year students live on campus. Those who reach the four-semester requirement at midyear are required to complete the entire term of the contract for the academic year (fall and spring semester).

More information about CMU's residency requirement can be found here.

Housing sign-up for the residence halls and University Apartments for the 2022-2023 academic year will begin on Tuesday, January 18, 2022. You will receive an email on Tuesday, January 11, 2022, with detailed information about housing sign-up. The sooner you sign up, the more likely you are to receive housing of your choice. Priority placement over incoming freshmen and transfers ends May 1, 2022.
