Study Abroad Fall and Spring Students Housing Process

Study Abroad Fall students do not complete a Housing Application and do not participate in Housing Selection. Abroad Fall students are to email Kevin Hillery at khillery@providence.edu if they are part of a group with abroad spring or full year students.
Abroad Fall that are not matched with complete fall semester groups are placed in their 2024-2025 housing after Junior Housing Selection (April 9^th) and before Sophomore Housing Selection (April 23^rd). A confirmation housing placement email will be sent to all Abroad Fall students between April 9^th and April 23^rd from Kevin Hillery (khillery@providence.edu)
All Fall semester complete junior groups pick housing on April 9^th. These students are to fill out the Fall 2024 Housing Application and form a group. The group is to only have students that will be living on campus for the Fall Semester. Study Abroad Fall students are not to be placed in an Erez group.
Rosters are set at the end of Housing Selection. Students that withdraw from study abroad after the Housing Selection process may forfeit their housing assignment and are subject to reassignment at the discretion of Residence Life.
Students that are full year but will be living in different locations each semester should form a group where they are living in the Fall semester in eRezLife. Then the student is to email khillery@providence.edu with the names of the students they plan to live with in the Spring semester.
