The Application Process
A student must be officially accepted to the University to be eligible to apply and contract for on-campus housing. All student-residents must be enrolled full-time in the University and actively pursuing a degree. Registration for six hours dissertation credit will satisfy the full-time student requirement.
To reserve a space on-campus, the student must complete each of the following steps:
Step 1: Complete a Housing Application

Housing Applications are also available to new students through the Office of Admissions. Current University of St. Thomas students may pick up a Housing Application from the Office of Residence Life.
Step 2: Complete a Housing Contract
Upon receipt of the completed Housing Application, The Office of Residence Life will forward the student a Housing Contract along with the Contract Terms and Conditions. You can view the terms and conditions here.
Step 3: Submit a $300 Security Deposit
A $300 Security Deposit should be submitted with the Housing Contract. The Security Deposit remains on record throughout the resident's tenure in housing and is returned to the student upon request, at check-out, less damages, fines, and/or other amounts due on the student's account. A placement will be reserved for the student upon receipt of the completed contract and Security Deposit.
