You must complete the following steps to submit your Housing Request:

Enrollment Deposit and your Enrollment Form in your TU Admissions Portal. The deposit will secure your spot in the incoming class and will be applied to your
tuition bill.
- Activate Your NetID: Once admitted to the university, activate your student NetID and student email.
- Only students who have submitted their Enrollment Deposit and Form, and have activated
their NetID, are able to access the Housing Request Form. You must complete Steps 1 and 2 above before proceeding to Step 3 below.
- Submit Your Housing Request:
- Log on to the Student Housing Gateway
- Fill out the 2024-2025 Housing Request Form

email address with instructions on how to complete the housing offer process.
- Students must accept the housing offer by completing the Housing Contract and submitting
a $350 non-refundable Housing Advance Payment within 5 days of receiving the offer
or the offer will expire and the student will go to the bottom of the waitlist.
