Housing Selection - Fall 2025 - for current resident students

Information for Current Residents wishing to live on campus for the 2025-2026 academic year

Deposits: Current students  must pay their housing deposits by March 24th. Deposits can be paid online.

Applications: Current residents must complete a Fall 2025 Housing Application on the Housing Portal once they've paid their deposits.  This must be done by March 31st.

Roommates: If current students are looking to room with someone to live with, they must request them via the Housing Portal before April 1st.  If the person(s) you hope to room with have not paid their deposits or completed their application, or if they are missing their meningitis vaccine confirmation, they will not be able to be found in the Roommate Request feature. After April 1st, you will not be able to request roommates, and will need to work with those people to let them know what room/building you've selected at your selection appointment.

Room Selection: appointments will be sent to you via WCSU email on April 4th, and you/your group will receive a room selection appointment for April 7th, 8th, or 9th.

Check your emails for updates and information. Questions?  See your RD, or stop by the Housing Office in the Midtown Student Center, suite 222.

Television on campus – Important information

For a new list of the updated cable channels, please click on this link:  Television Channel Guide.

Your digital television must have a QAM tuner (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) to work with the school’s cable service. The QAM tuner allows your TV to receive high definition cable programming without a cable set top box. Unfortunately, some less expensive TVs come with a low quality QAM tuner that may not be able to pick up all the digital channels. You should verify the specifications when you purchase your TV.

An NTSC (National Television System Committee) tuner is not compatible. This TV will require a digital-to-analog converter box to view television signals. (See information below to purchase a converter).

An ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) tuner can receive digital signals but is not compatible with the school’s cable system.
