All efforts will be made to assign you to the same space for the summer and academic year terms for those students who complete both applications. If you are required to move for the academic year, your move will be coordinated on or around August 1-3.
Students who sign a summer application only should plan to move out before August 10 at 5:00 p.m. EDT and will receive meals only August 10-16.
This program is only available for new incoming students opting to start during the summer.
A required 14-meal plan will be included in the 2025 Summer Housing Contract term. Meal swipes may be used in any of the Purdue Dining & Culinary residential dining courts that are serving. In addition to 14 meals per week, students will also receive an allotment of Dining Dollars, based upon the selected summer housing contract term.
All summer assignment spaces will be air-conditioned. Double, Double w/Shared bath, Triple, and Triple w/Shared bath rooms are study/sleeping rooms, not small apartments. Small electrical appliances such as coffee pots, popcorn poppers, mini-refrigerators, and microwaves are permitted in student rooms. As a reminder, all University Residence facilities are smoke/vape free.
Students who have signed a 2025 Summer Housing Contract will be eligible to park in any designated University Residences parking space at no charge for the summer only.
