If you plan on living on campus, you can fill out our housing application today. For Fall 2025 students, this will put you in line to select your preferred housing at the end of March. If you are a Spring 2025 student, you will be assigned a room and residence hall.

If this is your first time logging in to the housing system, you will need to set up your Northwest email account first.
