Housing
You have a full load of classes and a part-time job, you’re active in a couple of campus organizations, and you like to work out so you can stay in shape. The last thing you need is the commuting, cooking and cleaning that go with living off campus. The good news is that you can avoid all of the hassle by living in a campus residence hall.
On-campus living provides convenient access to classes and campus services. Our residence halls provide a built-in support network that offers the opportunity to develop lifelong friendships.
You’ll enjoy the convenience of free internet, television services, utilities and nearby parking. Laundry facilities and kitchens are also available in each residence hall.
Spacious and modern residence halls are offered at our Columbus and Hastings campuses. Dining facilities and Student Centers are conveniently located near the halls.
The Grand Island Campus has privately owned off-campus apartments available with on-campus dining facilities.
Meal Plans
Housing contracts include two meal options. The 14-meal plan provides Monday breakfast through Friday lunch. The 19-meal plan offers students meals Monday through Sunday. Students are required to select a meal plan at the time they submit a housing contract. See College Costs for details about pricing.
Apply for Housing
Students can apply to live in campus housing using our online housing application. After submitting the form, please mail a $150 housing deposit or contact our student accounts office to pay the deposit over the phone. Students will also need to complete the housing contract and meningitis form and email or mail to the housing office on the campus you plan to attend. Students will not be allowed to move into the residence halls until they have completed the online form, paid their housing deposit, and submitted both the contract and meningitis form.
