First-Year Housing

HOUSING APPLICATION PROCESS

From the moment you’re assigned to a residence hall, your lifelong connection to the Susquehanna community begins. You’ll attend class, socialize and live with other first-year students — all while learning more about yourself and others.

All students must complete a housing registration or housing exemption form in the Housing Self-Service portal (login is required).

The housing application is designed to gather details about you. Here, you provide information about yourself and your lifestyle preferences. It is important to answer honestly so you can be paired with a compatible roommate. You also have the option to select a roommate. You can choose someone you already know, conduct your own search on the Housing Self-Service page or connect with other incoming students on ZeeMee.

If you do not have a roommate in mind, that is okay! The Residence Life housing software matches students based on their application responses.
