Training and Development Graduate Assistantship

Basic Function

The Graduate Assistant (GA) for Training and Development’s primary function is a half-time assistantship within REHS, reporting to the Training Program Developer for REHS.

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 2026 housing information for incoming, transfer and current MSU students. 

Incoming Spring First-Year Students

As you prepare to begin at Michigan State University this spring semester, we’re excited to share information about spring on-campus housing with you! 

Current on-campus residents in their second year or beyond who are interested in an on-campus apartment at University Village or 1855 Place, a residence hall apartment, single room in Owen Hall, or a double room in select residence halls will complete the 2nd Year+ Application in their My Housing account. The application will be open October 7 through October 23, 2025. 

We recognize the high demand for on-campus apartments and single rooms, and unfortunately, not all upper-level students who apply will be able to secure their desired space. 

Spartan Navigator supports our second-year students outside of the classroom. Students face new pressures in the second year of college, including social changes, expectations of leadership, major fit/major changes and career pressures.

Spartan Navigator is here to help you work through all of these challenges through our various academic and social initiatives.

The Spartan Navigator program is designed for second-year students to continue to foster a sense of belonging at MSU by helping students engage with each other and get involved in the community.

A big part of the college experience is living with a roommate! All incoming Spartans will have a roommate during their first year at Michigan State. As part of the housing assignment process, students can preference to room with a fellow Spartan or be assigned a roommate at random. 

No matter who you room with, you’ll likely be spending a lot of time with that person, so have fun getting to know each other! 

Below you will find information and answers to the commonly asked questions surrounding roommates at MSU.  

We are pleased to announce on-campus housing options for summer 2026. Students taking classes on campus this summer can request summer 2026 housing in their My Housing account beginning April 6. Please note: You must be enrolled in classes for the terms you are staying on-campus. 

We will be providing summer residents with housing in Bailey Hall and Owen Hall. To stay in Owen for the summer, you must have a Fall 2026 housing assignment in Owen.
