New Students
Newly admitted students should pay a $150 advanced housing reservation fee shortly after their admission to be assigned to campus housing. After deciding to attend Chatham and paying the initial deposits, students will receive the New Student Information Packet at their mailing address.
Students need to complete the Residential Student Survey through the CampusVue portal to be assigned to campus housing. Students submitting their application by May 31st will be assigned a room and roommate by early-July. Students are notified of their housing assignment and roommate(s) via email and through US mail to their permanent address. Students requesting housing after May 31st will be assigned as spaces are available. Any questions about housing assignments should be addressed directly to the Office of Residence Life.
Students needing special housing, or requesting exemption from the residency requirement, based on dietary or medical needs must submit proper documentation as soon as there is a problem for the University to be aware and before the time of room selection. The director of health services, director of counseling services and/or the director of residence life will jointly approve these requests. Students should allow up to one month for a final decision to be made for special needs.
Chatham University Residence Life program offers a choice of several campus residential options, each with it’s own special features. Only full-time registered students are eligible to participate in Room Selection and to live on campus. By participating in room selection and signing a housing contract, students agree to abide by all University policies and procedures. The housing contract extends for the full academic year and cannot be broken at any time. Students not in good financial standing, as determined by the Office of Student Accounts, will have their housing assignments deleted.
