Students that created roommate groups of 3 or 4 students may find that they didn’t get placed with their intended roommate, but their intended suitemate instead. There also may be some students interested in changing their assignment to be with a different roommate or to be assigned a different location. To assist with this, we will have a Room Swap Form open in My Housing between Monday, July 28 at 10 a.m. Eastern Time, and Friday, August 8 at 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
Each year enrollment shifts and evolves. This sometimes creates a temporary need for overassigned rooms (what we call transitional housing) while we await predicted cancellations to continue through July and August.
Transitional housing is an arrangement in which rooms are converted to house one additional student, typically on a temporary basis. As cancellations come in, transitional rooms are broken down and students are placed in permanent housing assignments as soon as possible.
Meet the professional staff members of the Residential Care and Community Expectations (RCCE) team.
The purpose of the Residential Student Care Process is to connect students who have experienced some type of crisis with resources that promote their health, well-being, and success as a student. When there is concern that a student may need support, minimally a member of the REHS team will check in and provide resources with the student through Care Follow-Up. If a significant incident has occurred, a full-time staff member will offer to meet with the student to review resources and to support reintegration into the community in a Care Meeting.
Pack Up. Pitch In. is a division-wide effort to reduce residence hall waste during move-in and move-out periods. By increasing the visibility and capacity of recycling options at busy times of year, Pack Up. Pitch In. diverts a large amount of materials from landfills. We encourage students to pack up undesirable room items and turn them into valuable resources. Large items and appliances should never be placed into dumpsters!

Welcome to MSU! We are excited to be your home for the next two years. MSU has a two-year live-on requirement to support your academic success; studies show students who live on campus for two years are more likely to graduate.
Each neighborhood provides you the opportunity to live, dine, study and find your own Spartan community. So, no matter where you live on-campus, you have access to resources to help you find success at MSU!
The following is Spring 2025 housing information for incoming, transfer and current MSU students.
