Summer Housing for CUA Students: Information on summer housing opportunities for CUA Students is available here. In order to be eligible for an on-campus assignment through Housing Services during the summer, individuals must be a current CUA student or a visiting college student enrolled in summer courses at CUA. Current CUA students do not need to be enrolled in summer classes in order to be eligible for summer housing. This is a great opportunity for CUA students to pursue internships and other career opportunities in the DC area during the summer months.

Fall Room Selection: The lotteries for Room Selection have ended. General information is available on the Room Selection Web site inlcuding links to housing options for students not required to live on campus (rising juniors and seniors) and ongoing room selection for students required to live on campus (rising sophomores).

MyHousing: Last year Housing Services introduced the MyHousing system. MyHousing, accessible through your Cardinal Station account, is a great resource to see your assignment, roommates, room phone number, mailbox and current housing-related billing charges. You will also be able to see which dining plan you are enrolled in and participate in the Room Selection Lotteries.

Off-Campus Housing Listings Online: From the Off-Campus Housing Resource Center students can search the listings, see the location depicted on a Google map, and access the property basics, distance, and travel time to CUA. By selecting a specific listing a student will receive detailed information regarding the property, as well as access to landlord information, directions to campus, and nearby metro rail and bus stops.
