Checking in
Please note: in order to check into campus housing, occupants of residence halls must be:
- Full-time registered UMass Dartmouth students. Less than full-time students must seek an exception from the Director of Housing and Residential Education to be assigned or remain in University Housing.
- Cleared through Health Services requirements.
- Cleared financially through the Student Service Center on campus. For Fall semester, this means the student:
- Has paid the entire Fall balance in full, OR
- Has confirmed financial aid to cover the entire Fall bill, OR
- For any portion not covered by financial aid, has a payment plan set up and the first payment complete.
PLEASE NOTE: Any students who have a balance due from a previous semester will need to pay this balance in full in addition to the above financial requirement for the Fall semester.
