Late On-Campus Housing Application

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

I didn’t know I was going to be considering UT because I didn’t get the major I wanted, but after a turn of events I am now. Unfortunately that means I hadn’t submitted my housing application until much, much later than other people :frowning: . How screwed am I if I sent in the housing application to live on campus and $50 deposit a week or two ago?

…anyone please?

It’s super late, but worth a shot if you really want to live on campus! You never know. Just keep in mind, you will lose your $50 whether you get placed or not. Maybe try calling the housing office for an opinion? They’ve been super helpful when we have called.

I’ve heard of people submitting later, you’ll probably still get a room. Might be supplemental housing, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing; it’s cheaper and apparently easier to make friends since you have more roommates. I don’t think they’ve ever had to completely turn away someone who wanted to live on-campus. Just know you will definitely not be getting your first choice dorm :confused:

Agree with SlimShadyLady. You will probably still get a room, but might be supplemental housing.
