Winter Break Housing
麻豆影院's residence halls close at 5pm on Saturday, December 14, 2024. Students will not have access to residence halls during Winter Break; however, students can leave their belongings in their rooms during break assuming their plans are to return for the spring semester. Students should make sure they take home all items they will need during the break. Your RA will provide more in-depth information concerning winter break and hall closing procedures at a closing floor meeting before finals week. Please plan to attend this meeting.
If you are not returning to 麻豆影院 for the spring semester (because of graduation, transfer, withdrawal, etc.) you need to contact your Residence Hall Director or Assistant Residence Hall Director before finals week in order to schedule a checkout appointment. You will be able to check out during finals week within 24 hours of your last exam or Saturday if you are participating in graduation. For more information on checking out at the end of the fall semester, please see this page.
麻豆影院 State does offer winter break housing for students who need to stay on campus after 5pm on Saturday, December 14, 2024 and before 9am on Sunday, January 12, 2025. Only students with a housing assignment for the entire academic year (fall semester and spring semester) are eligible. Students who are withdrawing, transferring to a different university, studying abroad during the spring semester, or graduating in December are NOT eligible for winter break housing.
As long as a break housing application is completed, students are able to stay in their current fall semester room for the entire break period, or for as many days as needed. The cost for Winter Break Housing is $425 for the entire break, to be billed to each student's KSU Bursar account after the second week of the spring semester.
Please note, new students to campus who did not live on campus during the fall semester will be able to move into their rooms on Saturday before classes start, and will not need to complete a break housing application. Students who need to arrive prior to January 11, 2025 will need to register for early arrival. Early arrival will become available in January. New students will first need to check in at their Area Desk to receive their room key.
