Undergraduate & Graduate Room Rates: Summer 2025

Billing

Summer Housing is billed on a flat weekly rate from Sunday through Saturday. Fee bills are generated once per month. Residents living on campus for multiple months will receive multiple bills as each bill covers approximately one month.

Accommodations

Summer housing will be in double-occupancy rooms in Connecticut Hall. If needed, students may also be placed in double-occupancy rooms in South Campus.

In some special circumstances, Campus Housing staff may place students in other residence halls. Your specific room assignment will be provided at check-in, and all assignments are subject to change before then.

*If approved, access to the application will be provided in 1-3 business days

Summer Housing residents who do not have a Fall 2025 housing assignment must move out by 12:00pm on Friday August 15^th

Application & Eligibility

• The Summer Housing Application opens on March 1. You must apply at least 8 days before you plan to move in.

Key Dates

• Transitioning from Spring Housing: Graduate residents will move from their Spring 2025 room to their summer assignment during the week of May 12. Specific instructions will be emailed in May.

To be eligible for summer housing, you must be a current UConn student with a valid student ID and meet one of the following criteria.

  • Weekly Break Meal Plan - $167 per week
    • 21 meals per week (1 each per day: breakfast, lunch, dinner)
    • Unused meals do not rollover to the following day
  • Meal plans cannot be pro-rated as they are billed on a weekly basis (Sunday through Saturday)
  • If a student in a traditional dorm/suite area does not select a meal plan, one will automatically be assigned for them
• Students in apartment spaces may contact Dining Services to inquire about meal plan options: dining.services@uconn.edu.

Students approved to stay late in Spring 2025 who also are approved for Summer Housing will remain in their Spring housing assignment for the full Spring term unless otherwise directed by Campus Housing staff. Directions regarding moving to summer assignments will be emailed by May 2, 2025.

Summer residents living on campus as of Sunday August 10^th who also have a Fall 2025 housing assignment will transition to their Fall 2025 assignment between Sunday August 10^th and Wednesday August 13^th (exact date with more information regarding summer to fall transition will be emailed by Thursday August 7^th). All residents needing to transition during this period are required to be prepared to move during their assigned transition period – no exceptions will be granted.

Summer residents who do not have a Fall 2025 housing assignment are required to move out no later than 12:00pm (noon) on Friday August 15^th.

No exceptions will be granted for a later move out date.

If you plan to leave campus for at least one full week during your summer housing period and wish to avoid being billed for that time, you must do the following:

• Email livingoncampus@uconn.edu at least 5 business days before your departure.
• Fully move out and return your keys for the entire time you are away.

Please note: Due to high demand for summer housing, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to return to the same room assignment.

No, as we bill on a flat weekly basis, you will be charged for the full week.

No, you must be a current UConn student with a UConn student ID to potentially be eligible for Summer Housing. If you are a part of a larger group looking to plan a conference, please contact: conferences@uconn.edu

No, to be eligible as a student employee, you must be working for a university department, which will need to be verified by your university professional staff supervisor.

The answer is likely no. Our apartment spaces are only eligible for specific groups, graduate students staying in their same assignments in Northwood, and medical accommodations.

If living in Connecticut Hall or South Campus, you are required to have a meal plan and cannot opt out of it. If you have any questions on meal plans, please contact Dining Services directly: Home | Dining Services

The answer is likely no. Our single availability is extremely limited for the summer. As a result, students will only be assigned to a single if they have an approved accommodation for a single through CSD: UConn CSD
