Housing Assignments
Accepted students are able to log in to the TU Student Portal (HawkLink) and complete a Housing Application and pay the reservation fee.
On-campus housing is assigned on a first-come, first-serve basis. Although an applicant may request a particular dorm, there is no guarantee that their request can be fulfilled because there are several factors that go into assigning/placing a student in a dorm. Students interested in housing should complete the application below, including the $300 room reservation fee, as soon as possible. Space is limited to the first 134 completed applications.
