Apply for Housing?

We're excited you've decided to apply for on-campus housing!

Applying is as easy as 1...2...3...

If you are an undergraduate student, utilize the On-Campus Living website to familiarize yourself with the various Residential Learning Communities and other residence halls at Santa Clara University. Try to determine which options best meet your individual interests & needs before you begin the application process. As a graduate or law student, explore the housing options available to you and learn more about the graduate/law student application process. 

The application process differs depending on whether you are an incoming First-Year student, a returning student, or applying for graduate or law student housing. If you're an International student or transferring to SCU, we also have additional information for you. Learn about the dates and the application process associated with your specific student status.

Students who have an approved housing accommodation with the Office of Accessible Education will be contacted to set up an appointment with Marco Alejandro in order to select their room. You will not need to go through the Room Selection Process, even if you received a room selection date and time. Please contact housing@scu.edu or call (408) 554-4900 with any questions.

Please keep in mind that your approved housing accommodation only pertains to you, and does not extend to roommates. If you would rather go through the Room Selection Process with your group, that is fine, but you would forfeit your approved housing accommodation. 

Please note, housing accommodations may become void if the selected housing preferences on your housing application contradict the nature of the approved housing accommodation(s) and/or if you apply for housing as part of a group. A group is defined as a student requesting to live with one or more room/suite mates.
