Securing your on-campus housing is simple, but it’s important to meet key deadlines and take necessary steps to ensure a smooth process.
Priority Housing Deadline for Returning Students: If you’re a returning student, monitor your Webber email for the housing application for the upcoming academic year. Housing applications are typically sent out starting in mid-February. Submit your application by April 1st for priority consideration. Returning students who apply before this date will have priority placement based on their preferences. If you request the same room you lived in previously and submit by the deadline, you’ll have priority for that room. Applications submitted after April 1st will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis, as long as your housing deposit remains on file.
New Student Housing Applications: New students must submit both the housing application and a $150 non-refundable housing deposit before being assigned a room. The Housing Coordinator will make every effort to accommodate your housing preferences as indicated on your application. However, final assignments are subject to available space and dorm selection at the time of placement.
Waitlist Information: Due to high demand, a waitlist for housing typically begins in mid-June. We strongly encourage all students who plan to live on campus for the fall semester to complete their housing application and deposit as early as possible.
Financial Aid Consultation: Before submitting your housing application and non-refundable deposit, students should meet with the Financial Aid team to discuss housing costs and aid eligibility. Understanding your financial aid package is an important step in planning for your on-campus living experience.

WEBBER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO CONDUCT UNANNOUNCED ROOM CHECKS FOR VIOLATION OF RESIDENT HALL REGULATIONS.
Moving on campus marks the beginning of an exciting chapter in your journey! Living on campus means you’re right in the heart of all the action—connecting with fellow students, making lifelong friends, and immersing yourself in everything Webber has to offer. As you prepare to move in and kick off your academic adventure, we’re here to ensure that the process is smooth, organized, and stress-free. Follow the steps below to make sure you’re all set for a fantastic start to your college experience!
All students must arrive on their assigned check-in day and time, as provided by their coach or admissions counselor. Students will not be permitted to check in on non-check-in days, so it is essential to plan accordingly.
Before arriving for check-in, all students must ensure they have completed the necessary steps with each department. Students who have not completed the requirements will not be allowed to move into their residence hall, attend classes, or participate in any campus activities. Here’s a breakdown of what needs to be completed:
Admissions: All final and official transcripts, enrollment agreement, student services agreement, housing application, physical form, immunization form and required deposits must be submitted and processed through the Admissions Office. Please verify that everything is finalized at least one week before check-in day.
Financial Aid: Students must complete all forms requested by the Financial Aid Office, including FAFSA and any additional documents. Be sure to confirm that your financial aid package is fully processed and in place.
Business Office: All outstanding balances must be resolved with the Business Office. Students are required to fulfill their financial obligations before check-in. Please note that financial clearance is necessary for move-in.
It is critical that all these steps are completed before arriving on campus. Students who are not fully cleared by each department will not be allowed to check in or move into their residence halls.
By ensuring everything is in order before check-in day, you’ll enjoy a smooth and stress-free move-in process.
After you’ve cleared all the necessary steps with Admissions, Financial Aid, Health Insurance/Medical Clearance, and the Business Office, it’s time for the exciting part—officially checking in! Head over to Student Services station, where you’ll complete the final steps of your move-in journey.
First, if you haven’t received your student ID yet, this is where you’ll pick it up—your key to accessing everything Webber has to offer! From there, you’ll meet with our friendly Student Services staff, who will guide you through the remaining steps:
As part of the check-in process, each student is required to complete and return the Housing Room Condition Form to the Student Services Office within 24 hours of moving into their assigned living space. This form is essential for documenting the current condition of your room and is used as the basis for determining any potential charges for damages, losses, or both, at the time of move-out.
It is critical that students thoroughly inspect their room and accurately note any existing issues or concerns on the form. Failure to complete and return the form within the required time frame will imply that there were no pre-existing issues, and the student will be held responsible for any damages or discrepancies found during the move-out inspection. By completing this form, you help ensure a clear and fair assessment of your living space.
Please note that all Webber-owned furniture in your residence hall room must remain in place. Removing any furniture without prior approval from the Housing Coordinator will result in fines. Be sure to keep everything where it belongs to avoid any penalties!
Need Something Fixed? We’ve Got You Covered!
If something’s missing or needs fixing in your room, don’t worry—we’re here to help! Be sure to note any issues on your Housing Room Condition Form and submit a work order to have it taken care of. Whether it’s a broken drawer or a light that needs replacing, our maintenance team will jump into action to get things back in shape. Let us know, and we’ll take care of the rest!
After you’ve settled in, be sure to attend the welcoming sessions scheduled for all new students. These sessions are your chance to meet fellow students, learn about key campus resources, and get a jumpstart on your Webber experience. You’ll receive all the details during your check-in process. We can’t wait to help you make Webber your home!
