Housing For Transfers?

<p>Hey everyone, I’ve just been accepted for transferring next fall and while I sent in my housing deposit about a month ago, I have not been told if housing is guarenteed at all as a sophomore transfer student. Does anyone have further knowledge about the housing process for transfer students?</p>

<p>Also-are transfers guarenteed housing together? I have heard that the Tenley Campus houses most of the transfers, is this true?</p>

<p>Thank you so much! Good luck to everyone :)</p>

<p>All American University students are guaranteed housing for 4 semesters (or two years) as long as you don’t move off campus. (ie. You can’t spend a year on campus, then move to an apartment off campus and expect to get back into on campus housing.) So yes, you’re guaranteed housing. </p>

<p>You’ll get your housing decision along with everyone else, it’ll become available in your ‘Student Snapshot’ in your AU portal. You’re not guaranteed to be housed with another transfer, or on the same floor with another transfer – but there is a Transfer student community if that’s a community you’re looking for. Transfers rarely end up on Tenley campus – they keep housing options open there, and your original housing assignment may say Tenley, but in all likelihood will change a week or two later. Transfers are put with on campus students who have roommates that transfer, go abroad, or somehow ended up with a single room.</p>

<p>Welcome to AU :slight_smile: And Let me know if you have any other questions – transfer related or otherwise.</p>

<p>I hate to say it AU Transfer, but that’s simply not true. You’re only guaranteed housing if you have under 35 credits…</p>

<p>I suppose I meant once you get on campus housing – you’re good for four semesters – but lexsi is right in that:</p>

<p>“We guarantee housing to transfers who are admitted with 35 or less credits and who have submitted an enrollment deposit and housing application by July 1. Transfers students with more than 35 credits and those who also deposit after July 1 will be considered on a space available basis.” </p>

<p>But I haven’t heard of anyone who wanted housing not getting it as long as they send in their deposit in a timley manner, which you should be fine if you sent it in in February. I came in in the middle of my Junior year by credits (69 credits) and got housing on main campus just fine.</p>

<p>Really? Only 35? That’s disappointing. I applied for transfer (idk if I’ll go, though) and I’ll have 43 credits at the end of my freshman year… 7 from APs, 17 credits last semester, and 19 this semester. Way to get the short end of the stick for being ambitious and taking up extra classes :(</p>
