Mission statement

To provide safe, quality community living environments with emphasis on education, service to the community, and respect for diversity.


Freshman Live-In Requirement

First year students who enroll at WOU within one year of high school graduation regardless of class standing must live on campus for the full academic year (Fall, Winter and Spring terms). Exceptions to this requirement may be requested by petition. Exceptions that are generally approved are as follows:

  • Living at Home with Parents, within a 30 mile radius of WOU.
  • Having a Dependent that is living with you.
  • Marriage.

Other exceptions will be evaluated, but are generally not approved. If waiver of the live-in requirement is approved a $7.00/day cancellation fee for each day remaining in the contract will be applied to the student's account.




The Office of University Residences and Campus Dining
will be Closed on Friday, July 3rd in observance of Independence Day

We will open, and regular office functions will resume at 8:00 am on Monday, July 6th.
Happy Holiday!



Prospective Students


Please be patient as we focus our attention this week on checking current residents out of the residence halls. Expect some delays in processing your application if you recently applied for housing. You will receive a postcard from our office when your housing application has been processed. We thank you for your patience!



FYI: The next correspondence from the Housing Office that you should expect will be our July Mailing. Below is a brief timeline for the remainder of the summer. For details see our Housing Basics page for Housing related information and the Office of Admissions for SOAR realated information.

The Re-contracting process to choose a room and roommates to live with for the 2009-2010 academic year is now complete! We look forward to seeing all of our Re-Contractors on Campus next year!
