2025-2026 Student Housing Application Date

Waitlist:

Student Housing has started a waitlist for the 2025-2026 academic year. If you intend to live on campus, please log into the Student Housing Portal and add yourself to the waitlist. There is no fee to join the waitlist.

Freshmen and Sophomores: For freshmen and sophomores, spaces are still available within The Suite Double without Kitchens. After adding yourself to the wait list, we will send you instructions to apply and reserve space within The Suites for the fall academic year.

Convenience, safety, academic assistance and constant support are built into Student Housing. Take a look around the neighborhood and learn about the advantages for living on campus.

  • Application date: Tuesday, March 25 @ 9 a.m. 
  • Application fee: There is a $50 housing application fee and a $50 meal plan application fee (if applicable) to submit your application. There is no fee to be added to the waitlist. 
  • Don't wait to apply: You can apply for housing before you are officially admitted to CSUN. You just need your CSUN login that you receive when you submit your CSUN application.
  • Housing fills up quickly: Student Housing is offered on first-come, first-served basis and fills up quickly — we often have to start a waitlist after a few weeks — so make sure to apply early to avoid being waitlisted.
  • Room and roommate selection: Residents are able to select their own rooms and roommates. An email will be sent to all contracted students in the summer with room and roommate selection information. 
  • Know your options: Review our housing options and rates. Identify the option that suits you best.
  • Check out our Learning Communities: Decide if you want to be part of a Learning Community and see if you qualify.
  • Review our application process: Our "How to Apply" page has detailed information about our application process so you are ready to apply when the application goes live. Once application is live, spaces can fill up quickly. Your application is considered complete only when all the information is entered and the application fee is paid.
