Housing Eligibility
University housing is available to full-time undergraduate Barry
University students.
Housing Accommodations
Residence hall rooms, apartments, houses, and the Best Western
are fully furnished and air-conditioned. Many services are provided
for the convenience of residents. All residence hall rooms are wired
with ResNet connection (Internet access and network connectivity)
per student. In addition, there is a computer lab in Dalton-Dunspaugh.
All rooms are wired for cable TV. Laundry facilities are available
in each residence hall and the Best Western. University houses have
a washer and dryer. Students living in the Best Western receive
weekly linen and housekeeping services at no extra charge. All rooms
have telephone connections, with free local telephone service.
How do I apply to live on campus?
New students will receive a housing package once they have verified
their admission into the University. Returning students participate
in a spring term housing lottery during which they choose their
rooms for the next academic year.
Housing Assignment
New students are assigned housing by the Office of Residential
Life on a first-come, first-served basis. Admissions to the University
does not guarantee a housing assignment. The procedure for securing
a University housing assignment for new students is as follows:
- Application and acceptance to the University
- Payment of enrollment deposit.
- Application for on-campus housing completed and submitted to
the Office of Residential Life.
- Payment of housing deposit.
Assignments are processed as completed applications are received.
An application is considered completed only when the above four
steps are accomplished.
If you receive any special financial help from another department
on campus (for example housing waivers or scholarships) you must
still complete the above mentioned procedure in order to secure
a room. Contact Residential Life directly to receive information
regarding your housing application status. We are the only department
who can verify your housing status.
When do I pay?
Payment is due during the class registration process. A deferred
payment plan is offered; please contact Student Account Services
at (305) 899-3585 for more information. |
