FALL 2012 - SPRING 2013 APPLICANTS ONLY

Students seeking university housing accommodations for fall 2012 - spring 2013 will apply online. Students must be accepted to Jacksonville State University before applying for housing. A $150 nonrefundable application fee is required at the time of submission. You will need your MyJSU Username, and MyJSU Password to apply for housing.

The User Name and Initial Password are located at the bottom of your JSU acceptance letter. You will use this User Name and Initial Password to access your MyJSU account for the first time on the Internet (http://my.jsu.edu) to view personal student information, add/drop courses, view your financial aid information, and access many other options. After logging in the first time, you MUST change the password to a different password than the Initial Password. Also, you are required to answer three security questions and add a unique question and answer. It is recommended that you memorize this User Name and NEW Password.

The Housing Application/Lease Agreement is a NINE month lease agreement.

Application Procedures:

Assignment Procedures:

Assignments are made in accordance with the date in which the application and application fee are received in the housing office. No assignment can be made until both the housing application and application fee are on file. Returning students receive priority, if they apply during the designated reapplication period. The university cannot guarantee a specific assignment. Roommate preference questions will also be used to assign roommates if a requested roommate is not provided by the applicant. 

Private Rooms:

We currently do not offer private rooms upon application for housing. Daugette and Sparkman Halls are the exceptions to this as all rooms are private in these halls. You may request a private room after move-in. If space becomes available and your request is granted, you may move during the third full week of classes.

Roommates:

Roommate requests must be mutually requested and must include the correct student number of each roommate. Both roommate lease agreements and application fees must be received by the Department of University Housing and Residence Life at the same time and by the priority deadline of May 1 for the request to be considered. Also, both roommates must select the same living options in same order of preference. Applicants will be assigned another roommate without notification if their desired roommate does not request him/her as a roommate, desired roommate cancels his/her application, or the roommate applications are not received at the same time by the priority deadline of May 1 .

The Application/Lease Agreement is a legal, binding document for the entire academic year, lasting NINE months.
