Housing Selection

Returning Student Housing Selection

The Housing Application dates are currently being adjusted to accommodate FAFSA delays announced by the Department of Education. We will update our website and communicate the new timeline in the coming weeks. Please continue to check your emails for the updated information for the Returning Student Housing Selection and the New Student Housing Selection timelines.

Read our housing selection update email (.pdf) for additional details. 

The housing selection process allows returning students to reserve housing for the next academic year. Students must reapply for housing each year.

The process consists of three-steps:

  1. Apply and submit your deposit 
  2. Search for and match with roommates (optional) - this step will let you select your own roommates, rather than be assigned roommates by Housing Operations
  3. Select a room

Please note that the process spans many weeks. Spreading it out over his period of time ensures that we can assist students if they encounter problems along the way. We will happily work with students who encounter difficulty applying, choosing roommates, or selecting rooms. Please just reach out to us at [email protected] for support. Our goal is to get students into the building and room they want, with the roommates they want. 

It is important to note not all students will be able to select their desired room. This may be because of the date they applied (submitting an application after the due date to be included in a room selection process), or because no rooms remain available at the time of their room selection timeslot. 

Additionally, while in nearly all cases students are assigned to housing within FIT owned housing, or housing that is currently under lease at the time of the reapplication and room selection process, Pace University reserves the right to secure alternate housing (including the use of off campus housing resources) to meet the demand for housing. When demand for housing exceeds the supply offered by FIT owned or leased housing, some students may be subject to assignment in alternate housing.
