Flexible Housing

Live on Campus During Scheduled Breaks.

University of Wyoming Housing and Residence Life provides flexible housing options for student who need to arrive on campus early or stay on campus during breaks or during summer session.

Early Arrival

Individual Early Arrival

Students arriving early to campus as part of a group will work directly with the group organizer to coordinate a move-in time and do not need to sign up individually.

Students needing to move-in prior to the start of their contract may do so at a prorated fee, which is charged to the student’s housing bill. Please sign up for an early arrival time by completing the Early Arrival form.

Summer Housing

Summer student housing begins the Saturday following the last day of the semester in May and lasts until August 23, 2025. Summer housing does not require a student to be registered for summer term classes. However, a student's relationship or continuing relationship with the university and UW dictates the extent of eligibility for summer housing.

Eligibility

  • To be eligible for occupancy in Housing facilities, you must enroll in a University course or program, either during the summer or the preceding spring or following fall semester. Exceptions may be granted by Housing.

  • The University reserves the right to use your disciplinary status as a factor in eligibility for living in Housing facilities. In addition, Housing reserves the right to deny living arrangements to you if your presence may be detrimental or disruptive to the hall or floor environment.

  • Housing reserves the right to deny access to the Dining Service facilities when you and/or your guests are disruptive.
