Transfer students who are admitted to the University will receive an offer of admission through MyPennState. When accepting the offer of admission, you will be informed whether on-campus housing is available:
Housing Available:
You will have the opportunity to indicate your interest to live in University Housing. By selecting "Yes", you will receive a Housing and Food Service (HFS) Contract that you will review and agree to the Terms, Conditions, and Regulations, then pay the general and housing deposit fees. This will complete your acceptance of the offer of admission and secure a space for you in on-campus housing! Please note, once you accept the HFS Contract, it is a legally-binding contract which cannot be cancelled.
If you are not interested in living in University Housing, you can select "No" to the option, which will then take you to the page to pay the general deposit fees and accept the offer of admission.
Housing Not Available:
You will be advised If University Housing is not available.
If you are interested in being considered for on-campus housing, you can add your name to the On-Campus Housing Waitlist in eLiving, which will open at noon December 1. Starting in late-March, if space is available, HFS Contract offers will be released on Monday afternoons to those on the Waitlist.
If on-campus housing is not available, students on the Waitlist will be notified so that they can explore off-campus housing options.
