CURRENT RESIDENTS: Housing Information for Fall 2026 - Spring 2027
This category is comprised of current UNF students living on campus Fall 2025 and/or Spring 2026.
Students who currently live on campus are given initial opportunity to select upper-class housing options, including Osprey Fountains, Osprey Village, and The Flats at UNF.
Any CURRENT RESIDENT who has a desire to live on-campus for the 2026 - 2027 academic year should submit their housing contract no later than FEBRUARY 2, 2026.
Please note, the timeline for CURRENT RESIDENTS to take advantage of this opportunity is very tight! On December 1, 2025 the opportunity to submit a housing contract will expand to all other upper-class students NOT currently living on campus.
Any CURRENT RESIDENT living in Osprey Fountains, Osprey Village and The Flats at UNF who fully submits the Fall 2026 - Spring 2027 Housing Contract prior to January 16, 2026 will be pre-assigned by Housing and Residence Life to their same bedspace for Fall 2026 - Spring 2027.
PREASSIGNMENT FOR CURRENT RESIDENTS (SAME BEDSPACE)
What to know to prepare:
- Not all bedspaces are eligible for preassignment. Some spaces are reserved for departmental needs, including medical/disability accommodations, Living-Learning and Theme Communities, and student staff housing.
- Housing and Residence Life will determine which spaces are eligible for preassignment.
- If you're preassigned to one of these designated spaces, you'll still have the opportunity to keep or change your assignment during the online room selection process.
- Students selected for preassignment will be notified via email before room selection begins.
- As a reminder, ALWAYS check your UNF email for important Housing and Residence Life next steps and actions required to secure a preferred bedspace.
- The process to ultimately receive a bed assignment is a multiple step process and requires students to take specific required actions.
Follow the steps below:
STEP 1 (Required):
Fully submit the Fall 2026 - Spring 2027 Housing Contract in myHousing as early as possible.
The earlier a student fully completes all steps of the housing contract submission process in myHousing, the higher chance the student has to participate in the online room selection process.
STEP 2 (Optional):
Complete the Living-Learning/Theme Community application.
Living-Learning and Theme Communities offer a fun, supportive and meaningful way to build lasting connections and feel at home on campus.
For information on communities please visit Living-Learning and Theme Community webpage.
STEP 3 (Required):
Mark your calendar for online room selection process.
To choose your priority bedspace, fully participate in the scheduled online room selection process. If you miss your ticket window, your chance of selecting your preferred bedspace is lessened. Please note that simply not participating does not release you from the terms and conditions of your signed housing contract.
Online Room Selection Process Begins: Begins March 4, 2026
Check back in February 2026 for more information
STEP 4 (Required):
Schedule a move-in appointment via myHousing.
Information on the move-in process and how to schedule a move-in appointment will be released mid-July 2026.
Living-Learning and Theme Community (LLCTC) participants move-in will occur via appointment on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

Preparing for Upper-Class Room Selection
Between now and February 2026, Current Residents with a completed housing contract will need to ensure they have read and completed the following, as applicable:
- Ensure ALL room and roommate preferences within myHousing are up to date.
- Search AND mutually accept your desired roommate(s) in myHousing. Please note the following:
- Both you AND your desired roommate(s) must be in the same Roommate Group to be considered as a mutual request.
- It is important to be pro-active in accepting or declining roommates within myHousing to prevent any issues during the Room Selection process.
- Some rooms/apartments/suites and/or individual bed spaces may not be available for assignment during the room selection process due to Living-Learning Communities, Theme Housing, ADA needs, etc. Housing and Residence Life will communicate directly with students impacted by their space being unavailable prior to the online room selection process.
- If you are seeking a medical or disability accommodation, please contact the UNF Student Accessibility Center.
