University Housing is not accepting any additional applications for summer  2020.  Additionally, if you have moved out of University Housing, you are not eligible to return for the remainder of summer 2020.

For those approved to stay in housing for summer 2020, the move out date is Saturday, August 1.  Detailed information will be sent to residents' GSU student email account on specific move-out procedures.  Students who have a confirmed housing assignment for fall 2020 may be qualified to remain in housing for the month of August.  More details are forthcoming once fall 2020 plans are finalized.

University Housing cannot provide medical care.  We encourage students who are experiencing symptoms of the flu or coronavirus to return home and seek medical care with their primary care physicians or at the University’s Student Health Clinic.

The CDC provides guidance on environmental cleaning and disinfection recommendation.  Residents should disinfect their own spaces using these guidelines.

We are following regular updates from the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). As new information emerges, University Housing will follow the recommended actions as directed by these entities.  University Housing has been cleaning high traffic points such as doorknobs, handrails, drinking fountains, elevators, laundry facilities, etc. even more frequently than usual. Additionally, residents can expect to see the following:

• Sanitizing stations throughout the residence halls
• Plexi-glass shields at high service areas
• Staff wearing PPE
• Educational materials provided to staff and students on social distancing, cleaning rooms, proper ways to wear and care for PPE
• Maximum occupancy for common spaces, lounges, learning centers and laundry rooms
• Water fountains turned off except for bottle filling stations
• Adjustments to health & safety inspection procedures
• Protocols for staff entering students rooms

Developments related to COVID-19 are challenging to predict that far in advance, specifically for our campus environment.  There is a possibility, should the virus worsen or experience a second wave that an early move-out could occur.  We are working on plans for this should the need arise.  University Housing will provide as much notice as we are able.

Housing applications are still open for fall 2020.  However, there are currently waitlists in place for all applicants and on-campus housing cannot be guaranteed.

At the current time, spring 2021 plans would mirror fall 2020 plans.  However, developments related to COVID-19 can affect spring 2021 and it is too early to provide definitive details for spring 2021.  Additionally, deferring an application to spring 2021 does not guarantee a space on campus.

Early move-in is only permitted for certain groups such as athletes and international students.  These arrangements are made directly with coaches and program directors.

In an effort to prioritize the health and safety of our students, residents are strongly encouraged to get tested prior to moving in.  If you test positive, per public health department mandates, you are to isolate at home before moving in to the residence halls.

Room change requests are not being fulfilled at this time.

For those on the waitlist for fall 2020, we encourage you to seek alternative housing because on-campus housing cannot be guaranteed.  We invite you to seek assistance from our off-campus housing support by visiting their site or emailing offcampus@gsu.edu.

Yes, there are currently waitlists in place for both new and continuing students.  For continuing (upperclass) students, any applications received on or after February 13, 2020, are on the waitlist and for new (first-year) students, any applications received on or after June 25, 2020, are on the waitlist.  Students can view their waitlist number by visiting the MyHousing portal.

Move-in plans are in progress with procedural adjustments due to COVID-19.  Once assignments are finalized, full detailed instructions will be emailed to your GSU student email.  However, residents and families can expect the following:

• Expanded move-in time frame; we expect move-in to begin August 15, 2020 and go through August 23, 2020.
