Housing Vaccine RequirementsDeadline: August 21 (Before Move-in)Contact: Housing and Residence Life - 410-704-2516 |
Housing assignments are sent early in August. This letter will contain your housing assignment, the name(s) and phone number(s) of your roommate(s), and other information about housing, moving in and housing vaccine requirements. Your housing packet will also contain your campus mailbox number. As a resident student, you are assigned a box in the Post Office (located in the University Union) where you can receive mail and packages. (Towson Run, Millennium Hall, Paca and TUbman House residents' postal boxes are located in their respective residence halls.) If you plan to commute to campus, you can rent a TU mailbox. Once you receive your housing assignment letter, you'll want to begin communicating with your roommate(s) to get things off to a friendly start. You may also want to coordinate what each of you will bring when you move in.
If you are planning to live on campus, find out more about housing vaccine requirements.
Rooming with someone in the residence halls can be one of the best experiences of college life and possibly the most memorable. How you and your roommate approach the task of building a relationship with each other will have a great impact on the quality of your experience. You must be willing to communicate, share your feelings and concerns, and work through conflicts as they arise. For you to get along well with your roommate(s), it is very important that you get to know one another. Share your likes and dislikes, the ups and downs of your lives, and your thoughts and beliefs. The key to any successful relationship is effective communication and respect. You may not necessarily become each other's best friend, but you should have mutual respect and, as a result, the experience will be rewarding. If you have any questions or concerns, call the Office of Housing and Residence Life, 410-704-2516.
Housing and Residence Life offers, at no charge, off-campus housing listings for students seeking a place to live and for property owners with housing available. These listings are posted online at www.towson.edu/housing/offcampus and are available at the Department of Housing and Residence Life office. Towson University accepts no responsibility for information contained within the Off-Campus Housing Web site, Off-Campus Housing listings or Off-Campus Housing information posted by the university. The university does not qualify, inspect or otherwise screen roommates, property owners, landlords or properties. Individual persons are responsible for inspecting properties and meeting potential roommates in order to determine acceptability.
How Does It Work?
Using the off-campus housing list is quick and easy. The postings are organized into two groups: housing available and housing wanted. The listings are available online or by visiting the Department of Housing and Residence Life located at the lower street level of Newell (across from Prettyman Hall and next to the Newell Den dining area). Listings are also posted at the first floor of the University Union (across from the University Store) on the commuter information bulletin boards. Review the list and write down the names and contact information of the people you want to call.
