Spring 2021 Housing Application

2020-2021 Academic Year Housing Application Process - CLOSED

STEP 1 – Consider your options

STEP 2 – Submit your Housing Application on the Housing Portal

You will need to complete the following information as part of the Housing Application process:

  • Emergency Contact Information - You will need to provide the name, telephone number, and email address of someone you designate as your emergency contact person.
  • FERPA Information Release Consent (optional) – You will be able to identify a person (parent, guardian, designee) to access your CSUSB Housing records.  Housing and Residential Education will not disclose any information from your records to individuals not identified in the FERPA release section. Read more about your rights under FERPA.
  • Living Learning Community Preference (optional) – If you are interested in participating in an LLC, you will be able to preference that on the application.  Please note a housing assignment in a LLC is not guaranteed.
  • Roommate Profile – You will complete the Roommate Profile questions about room environment and social interactions; your answers will assist in matching roommates for double occupancy rooms.
  • Gender Inclusive Housing (optional) – This section provides you the option to indicate if you are seeking Gender Inclusive Housing, and respond to the supplemental question provided.  Housing and Residential Education will not ask for any more information than is required to meet students’ housing needs and all information is confidential and protected by FERPA.

If you cannot complete your Housing Application in one session, you may return to it and continue where you left off. Do not delay in completing your application, priority is based on the date and time that you complete and submit the application. You will receive a confirmation email upon submission of your application sent to your CoyoteMail (csusb.edu email) account.

STEP 3 – Room Assignments

Check your CoyoteMail often! 

Room assignments are given priority by need base and application submission date. Room assignments will be emailed to your CoyoteMail. Please review your room assignment and complete the included steps to schedule a move in date and time.

STEP 4 - Complete your Student Housing License Agreement (contract)

Complete your 2020-2021 Student Housing License Agreement (contract) by agreeing to the terms and conditions of the assignment.  The Housing License Agreement is available as the next page in the application once a room assignment has been created by DHRE.  If you are under 18 years of age, a parent/guardian must also agree to the terms and conditions through a Minor Guarantor Form.

Room Summary

Once you have completed all the steps above, you will be able to review your 2020-2021 housing assignment information – your specific Village, room, roommate, and roommate email.  We encourage you to contact your roommate to start to get to know each other and coordinate room needs.

Voluntary Meal Plans

Voluntary meal plans are available for purchase through Yotie Eats.

Cancelling an Application or Reservation

You are able to cancel your in-progress Housing Application prior to signing the Student Housing License Agreement by taking no further action or by submitting a cancellation request.  After signing the Student Housing License Agreement, you must submit a cancellation request.  The "Cancellation Request" can be found under Forms in the Housing Portal.
