Students must have a signed contract to live in the Residence Halls. To complete their contract, students must have their Housing Deposit processed and their Housing Application submitted. To access the Housing Application, you must have a Housing Deposit submitted and processed by our Student Financial Services and Admissions offices.
Deposits are processed Monday–Friday by our Student Financial Services and Admissions offices and may take a few business days to be completed.

Returning residential students (any student who currently resides on campus) will complete online roommate matching and room selection through the housing portal.
New residential students (any student who does not currently reside on campus, including transfer students, first-year students, or current Madonna students living off-campus) will indicate preferred room types in their online housing application. These preferences will guide the assignment process, though specific room types are not guaranteed.
We encourage students planning to live on campus to submit their Housing Deposit and complete their Housing Application as early as possible to reserve their room for the upcoming academic year. Housing Deposits must be submitted before a student may fill out a Housing Application. Students living in on-campus housing (formally defined as residential students) are required to sign our housing contract and must be enrolled at the University.
Madonna University is committed to the full participation of all students in campus life. If you require special housing accommodations, contact the Office of Accessibility Services to begin the request process or request additional information.
If you have concerns about the policies above, please submit a Special Academic or Administrative Student Request form to the Registrar's office.
