First-year and transfer students who submit their deposits by May 1 are guaranteed housing in their first year. Here’s all you have to do:
Register for Housing

Fill out the housing application on myPugetSound by June 1. Request a specific roommate, if you want (you’ll both have to indicate this on the housing form). Indicate certain lifestyle characteristics to consider.

You’ll be assigned to a residence hall and matched with a roommate. You don’t have to find a roommate ahead of time. About 80% of first-year students go through our roommate-matching process.

View your assignment online starting July 15.

Room (And Never Bored)
First-year students are assigned to one of six buildings, generally in double-occupancy rooms, with several floor plans. There may be a small number of triples and quad rooms, but those assignments vary from year to year.
We affirm the gender identity of all students and offer housing to fit your needs. You can make that indication on your housing application.
