Residence Hall Application Available Dec. 7: How to Proceed
If you're not currently living in one of our communities but would like to sign up for the 2027-2028 academic year housing in one of our residence halls, please follow the steps outlined below. (Students must be admitted to the university with a verified K-State eID to complete these.)
First, watch the Application Webinar, which will walk you through accessing and completing the housing application for incoming students.
- The residence hall application will be available to complete beginning at 3 p.m. Monday, Dec. 7, 2026. Students can then complete the application and submit a $230 payment. This amount consists of a $30 non-refundable processing fee and a refundable $200 initial payment.
- Once the application is complete, it becomes a legally binding contract. Applications will not be processed or considered complete until the initial payment is made. A verified K-State eID and password are required to complete this process.
If you have questions or concerns about the contract payment, please contact the Housing and Dining Services office for assistance. - The date and time a student completes the residence hall contract will determine their place in line for room selection in March and April.
- Learn more about the options available to you and calculate your total room and board expenses in our Explore Your Options worksheet.
- You can compare costs at a glance with our residence hall cost sheet (PDF).
- Join us for our Room Selection Webinar in March to learn how room selection works. More information will be shared about the date and time of the webinar in February or March.
- Residents who are confirmed for a Residential CAT Community or Honors Housing will begin to choose their living experience in late March.
- All other new residents will begin to choose their living experience in April. A notification with your selection date and time will be sent to your K-State email in March.
Already Live Here and Wish to Return for 2027-2028?
If you're loving your campus home-away-from-home and want to reserve your space (or another space) for the 2027-2028 academic year, you can reapply anytime after the application opens. You will have priority in choosing a space over incoming students and don't need to apply immediately when the application opens. Watch your email for more information—we'll send details in the HDS newsletter and in a separate message. Your RA and community coordinators will also help ensure you understand your housing options.
As always, we're here to answer your questions. Call us at 785-532-6453 or email housing@k-state.edu.
