Spring Semester Only Application

Spring Semester 2024

Access the Housing Portal to complete your housing application

In order to access the Housing Portal, you need to:

  2. Activate your UMD Email Account.   You'll receive housing confirmation emails and emails from potential roommates at your UMD account, so it is important that you activate your UMD email account.

Housing Priority

Spring semester housing applications are processed in the order they are received.

Building Preference Requests

Requests for specific buildings can be submitted on the housing application.  Please note, while we work to accommodate students in one of the buildings they have indicated, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to honor all building preference requests.

Roommate Requests

You may request another student to be your roommate within the Housing Application.  Please note - roommate requests are not guaranteed!  If you do not request a roommate through your Housing Application, we will match with another student based upon the answers to your profile questions.

Housing Accommodations

Please indicate any medical needs that may require an accommodation in the appropriate section on your housing application.  Please note, however, that you must also complete the Housing Accommodations process through Disability Resources to formally request an accommodation.
