Office of Residence Life
WELCOME TO YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME
The Office of Residence Life promotes an engaging, safe and inclusive environment for academic success and personal growth through student-centered programs, innovative services and cost-effective facilities. With 10 residential communities, we are home to nearly 6,000 students.
NEW & TRANSFER STUDENT HOUSING SELECTION
After a future student has been admitted into BGSU, the next step is completing the housing application and paying the $200 initial housing payment.
The housing application opened on Nov. 13 and the DAY a student pays the initial housing payment will determine their room selection time - not based on the time they pay.
RETURNING STUDENT HOUSING SELECTION
Are you guaranteed on-campus housing next academic school year?
On Oct. 31, 2018, every student currently living on campus received an email about their Housing Status for next academic school year. A student's status will either be Guaranteed -or- Not Guaranteed.
