About Room Selection​

Room Selection allows for all currently enrolled DePaul students to select a campus apartment for the 2025-26 academic year. Our Room Selection process will begin February 3, 2025.​

We offer unique apartments that provide the convenience and flexibility of living on campus. Campus apartment options are available on both the Lincoln Park and Loop campuses and are viewable on our Housing Options page.​

The Room Selection process includes the following steps:​

  1. ​​Complete a housing agreement within the Housing Portal at myhousing.depaul.edu​.
  2. You will receive a randomized Room Selection appointment via email with detailed information regarding the online process. 
  3. During your designated appointment time, visit myhousing.depaul.edu​ to see the available options and select your campus housing for the 2025-26 academic year.

Room Selection, Continued

Housing assignments will continue for students, in a limited capacity, after the Room Selection process has concluded. More information on room types, rates, roommates, and more can be found in the dropdowns below.

Campus apartments are mixed in with DePaul buildings and our traditional residential halls. Campus apartments are fully furnished apartments with a kitchen and a shared living space. Campus apartments also feature wireless internet and laundry facilities within the building.

During Winter Break, campus apartments - excluding McCabe Hall - do not close. Residents of Centennial Hall, Courtside Apartments, Sanctuary Hall, Sanctuary Townhomes, and Sheffield Square may remain on campus during winter break. Whereas, McCabe Hall will be closed and its residents must leave their on-campus apartment for the winter break period.

Students are not required to create a roommate group. Students who do not create a roommate group will be assigned roommates at random.

Students who do have roommates in mind will need to complete a roommate group within the housing agreement before March 28, 2025. Roommate groups cannot exceed four students total. 

Please note, one member of the group will be responsible for assigning each roommate's housing. By joining a roommate group, students are authorizing their roommate(s) to act on their behalf during the Room Selection process.

Students who require housing accommodations for medical reasons, including the need for a service or emotional support animal, must register with the Center for Students with Disabilities (CSD). Students who complete their registration process with CSD before March 1 will receive priority for housing accommodations. Any accommodation requests that are submitted after March 1 will still be considered, but DePaul Housing & Residence Life's ability to grant the accommodation request will be based on availability.

Housing Cancellation

There is no housing charge or commitment when completing the Housing Agreement for Room Selection. However, if a student is assigned to campus housing at Room Selection and needs to cancel after being assigned but prior to the start of their housing agreement, then there is a $1,500 cancellation fee. Further charges are applicable once the housing agreement has started. Please see Section 4 of the 2024-2025 Terms & Conditions for the full cancellation policy. 

Meal Plan Cancellation

Signing the housing agreement holds students to the meal plan terms and conditions. If a student cancels their housing agreement, the meal plan will be cancelled for any future quarters. Full meal plan terms can be found in section 5 of the 2024-2025 Terms & Conditions
