Apply for Housing

Fall 2024

Current residents who are staying for the Spring 2024 semester will receive an email with a link to select their room and roommate for the Fall semester. This selection process will be available from March 1st to March 17th.

New resident students should find the Housing Application for the 2024-2025 academic year on the Housing Portal. Please note that completing the TJC Admissions application does not guarantee a room on campus.

Here are some important dates to keep in mind:

  • January 1st: Fall 2024 Application opens
  • March 1st: Room and roommate selection opens for current students
  • March 18th:Room and roommate selection opens for new students
  • March 25th: Fall 2024 Placement begins
  • April 15th: Fall 2024 Placement emails & letters are sent out

To ensure that you are ready for roommate selection on March 18th, please complete all steps on the Housing application. This will allow you to log into your Housing Portal and select your preferred room and roommate at the designated time.

Please note that completing the Housing application process early increases your chances of getting a room on campus. Additionally, TJC-affiliated teams and groups (such as Voleyball, Basketball, and Belles) have rooms blocked by sponsors and coaches. If you are a member of a TJC-affiliated group, you must still complete the housing application process.

A $130 one-time Application Processing Fee must be paid by first-time applicants and anyone who took a semester off from housing. This fee cannot be paid by Financial Aid or Scholarships and is non-refundable.
