Who Can Apply?

Eligibility notices for the Continuing Student Housing Application for the 2025 Room Selection process are sent to students via their UC San Diego email. 

  • Students who completed the full term of their 2024-2025 housing contract and  meet all ongoing campus housing eligibility requirements.
  • Scholars in UC San Diego programs that provide four years of housing guarantee or mandate living on campus as a condition of their offer. 

Eligibility Details & How To Apply

Those eligible to submit a Continuing Student Housing Application for 2025 Room Selection will be able to do so beginning February 20, 2025 to February 26, 2025 at 11:59PM (PST).

  • Click on the Housing Portal (login with your campus credentials)
  • Click on the "2025 Continuing Student Housing Application & Room Selection Process" category
  • Click on "2025 Continuing Student Housing Application" to begin

Students eligible will submit an application for the 2025 Room Selection process.  The application will consist of:

  • Review and update personal, emergency and confidential contact information. 
  • Completing your roommate matching information. 
  • Other options or preferences may be available to select.

A confirmation email will be sent to your UC San Diego email account.  Submitting a Continuing Student Housing Application does indicate that you are eligible to receive a housing contract in our next phase of the 2025 Room Selection process. 

The Continuing Student Housing Application and Room Selection process will be very active.  With the number of students accessing it, there can be slowness or delays. You don't need to rush to complete it but should plan accordingly as you need to meet all housing deadlines. 

Current Residents With No Housing Guarantee

Eligibility notices for the 2025 Room Selection process will be sent via email to all current residents.  If you receive a notification that you do not have a housing guarantee, we are providing an opportunity for you to share interest in living on-campus for the 2025-26 academic year.

Current residents with no housing guarantee will be able to show interest in on-campus housing beginning February 20, 2025 to March 11, 2025 at 11:59PM (PST).

  • Click on the Housing Portal (login with your campus credentials)
  • Click on the "2025 Continuing Student Housing Application & Room Selection Process" category
  • Click on "2025 Room Selection Interest Form for Non-Guaranteed Students" to begin

Access to the application and processes in the Housing Portal will not be updated till February 20th.

You'll be asked to confirm interest and will receive an email at your UC San Diego email account.  Showing interest does not indicate that you will receive a housing contract and have a space for the 2025-26 academic year. Should we be able to offer you a space, we will notify you via email of the next steps.  We anticipate being able to send you an update (if needed) via email around the following dates:

  • April 14th – status update and next steps 
  • May 5th – email regarding contract process and due date for the $450 prepayment to those receiving a contract offer 
  • May 20th-22nd - Room Selection Interest List room selection signup (selecting from available space)
