The application for Housing and the application process for the University are totally separate from each other. You may apply to Housing before you are admitted to the University, but you will not be assigned a room until you are admitted. If your admission to the University is denied, your $100 deposit will be refunded.
ETSU Housing and Residence Life works closely with the designated homeless-student liaison in the Financial Aid Office to provide homeless students who are enrolled in the institution access to housing resources. These resources include assistance with submitting an applicaton/deposit; first priority in housing placement and for placement in housing facilities that remain open for occupation for the most days in a calendar year; and other resources during and between academic terms.
Apply Early!
You are encouraged to apply as early as possible, as housing/room assignments are made on a first-come, first-served basis. Acceptance of an application and deposit does not guarantee an assignment. Assignments for fall semester begin in March and continue throughout the summer. Spring semester assignments begin in mid-December and summer school assignments begin in April.
Submit your Reservation Deposit!
The $100 deposit is used as a reservation, cancellation and damage deposit. The deposit
will be refunded if:
- Housing is notified by email (housing@etsu.edu) the student is not returning to housing, prior to June 1 (for Fall) and January 3 (for Spring).
- The student is prevented from entering the university because of medical reasons, confirmed in writing by a licensed physician.
- Housing space is not available.
- Full refund will be made in case of death.
You must confirm your agreements online by the deadline date stated in your assignment letter, or the assignment will be canceled. If there is a question about the assignment, contact the Office of Housing immediately. The Housing assignment and agreements are for the academic year (fall and spring). If you enroll spring/summer, the agreements are for the one semester.
Housing and dining fees are payable at the time tuition fees are due each semester. If you receive a housing assignment after tuition fees are paid, fees are due immediately at the Office of Financial Services. Please be aware of fee deadlines stated in the Schedule of Classes each semester. You will not always receive a bill in the mail.
