2026 Summer Housing Information

The University supports a small, vibrant undergraduate community in campus housing each summer.  Students attending summer school, participating in faculty-mentored research or university-supported internships, and summer student employees are eligible to live on campus. 

Dates:

The Summer Housing application will open at 9 AM on March 16 and close at 11:59 PM on April 5, 2026.

The Summer housing period officially begins on May 17, 2026. Students may sign up for summer housing in lengths of 5 to 10 weeks. All stays must be continuous, and all students must vacate summer housing by the universal move-out date of July 27, 2026.

Students who need to stay on campus after the end of the spring term or arrive early for their summer housing period may select a start date of May 10 on their summer housing application, as well as the appropriate length to cover their full housing need for summer. Those students will be assigned to transitional housing while buildings are prepared for summer occupancy.

  • Students who wish to live in the apartments must have a summer housing start date of May 17 (or May 10 for transitional housing). No other start dates are permissible for summer housing in the apartments. 
  • Students who live in residence halls may select any Sunday from May 10 to June 21 as their housing start date, with a summer term length of 5 to 11 weeks and a move-out date of July 26.

Housing Assignment: 

Summer housing assignments are based on a student's summer category. Students with an approved opportunity through the UR Summer Fellowship (URSF) Program are eligible to live in the University Forest Apartments or in a residence hall. All other eligible students will be assigned to a residence hall.
