Housing Application Types
Academic Year
The academic year housing application covers both the Fall and Spring semesters. Contract dates begin in August and end in May. This is the standard application for most first-year, Bridge to Clemson and continuing students.
Spring
The Spring only housing application covers only the Spring semester, with contract dates beginning in January and ending in May. This option is designed for students who begin enrollment in the Spring, are returning from a study abroad program or internship, or did not live on campus during the Fall semester. Space is limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Summer
The Summer housing application covers all Summer Sessions, with contract dates determined by the specific sessions a student selects. Students may choose any individual term or combination of terms that match their academic plans.
Fraternity and Sorority Housing
The housing application and contract for on-campus chapter housing for the upcoming year opens in mid-November. We encourage you to start talking about where you are living the upcoming year soon after recruitment has ended. Chapters with on-campus chapter halls typically require their newest members to live in the chapter hall their sophomore and/or junior year.
