Winter Session Frequently Asked Questions

Residential Education - Winter Housing

If I take winter session classes can I remain in my current space?
Only students currently living in Machuga Heights, Russ, Hawk Crossings, Sinatra Hall and The Village at Little Falls can stay during winter session.

Is there available space for me to stay just for winter session?

Unfortunately there are no spaces available for winter session.

Can I move back into my building early if I am taking winter session courses?
Only students living in Machuga Heights, Russ Hall, Hawk Crossings, Sinatra Hall and The Village at Little Falls can move back in early.

If I am living in one of the open buildings, will it cost me extra to stay?
No, the rates for those buildings already have that factored in.

I am a new student for the spring 2012 and I am taking winter sessions, can I move in early?
If you have been assigned to one of those buildings that are open during Winter Break and your space is ready, please contact the Office of Residential Education and Services to set up a move-in date.

I have fall housing in one of the buildings open for Winter Break but have cancelled my housing for the spring, can I remain in that spot for Winter session?
No, students who have been released from their contract will need to move out at the close of the residence halls for the fall semester.

I live in one of the buildings that is not open for the winter session but I want to take a course, what can I do?
You may choose to commute for the times on campus attendance is required. In addition, many of the winter session courses are completely online courses which you can do from the comfort of your home. Please review the winter session courses for more information.
