Residence Guarantees
First Year Students
| First year students are encouraged to live in traditional dorm-style residences with a roommate. This arrangement provides an excellent opportunity to meet other students, socialize and study together. Additionally, the convenience of a meal plan is included. Dorm residence is our most affordable option, and cleaning services are provided for common areas and washrooms. |

Residence Offer Acceptance and Confirmation

A move-in package email will be sent to residents who accepted a space prior to arrival. |
Waitlisted Applicants
