Spring Housing

Students who have been admitted to FSU for Spring 2027, and current FSU students who are completing a First Semester Abroad can complete the Spring 2027 contract.

The Spring 2027 contract will be available starting in early October. Assignments are made based on the contract submission date and will be published in December, no later than December 18th.

You can tell us your room type preferences in your initial contract. Our ability to honor your room type preferences will depend on what space is available at the time you are assigned.

Halls will open for Spring Move-In on Monday, January 4th at 3 pm. Information about move-in will be sent with assignment notifications.

The following are highlights of the terms and conditions of the Spring 2027 housing contract:

• This contract creates a financial obligation to pay rent for on-campus housing for the Spring 2027 semester.
• This contract cannot be cancelled for Spring 2027 unless you provide written notice to the Housing office that you will not be enrolled in any Florida State University classes (including online/remote courses) for Spring 2027. Notification must be received by our office in writing by December 1st, 2026 to avoid obligations for Spring rent.
• Prior to submitting the contract, you should consider your own personal health status and any increased risk factors when contracting to live on campus, where you will have roommates and suitemates.
• This contract is binding regardless of room assignment. Please see below for important information about the availability of preferences for the spring semester. Most students should plan on an assignment in a double (shared) room with a bathroom adjoining another double room.

The full Housing Contract Terms and Conditions are available here.

The process to complete your housing contract is as follows. Click each step below to learn specifics about how to complete each item.

• Step 1 — Complete the online portion of the contract, including reviewing the terms and conditions of the housing contract
• Step 2 — Within 7 calendar days of completing Step 1, pay the $400 advance payment on the FSU Fee Payment site
• Step 3 — Within 7 calendar days of completing Step 1, submit the Spring Parent/Guardian Contract Consent Form (if student is under 18 on the contract submission date).

Failure to complete all of the steps that apply to you will result in cancellation of your housing contract, and will require you to resubmit your contract, if available.

Step 1 — Online Portion of Contract

1. Login to the Housing portal with your FSUID and password
2. Click Spring 2027 Contract in the top bar, or click on the three white lines on the top left if not visible in the top bar.
3. In the Term and Contract Selector, if you see Spring 2027, select Start Contract.
4. Follow the steps provided until you reach the page that confirms that you have submitted the online portion of your housing contract

Step 2 — Submit Prepayment

(It may take up to one full business day for your deposit to be available to pay.)

1. Click on this link: FSU Fee Payment site
2. Click "I have a permanent FSUID" button
3. Enter your login information (this will automatically redirect you to the "make a payment" screen in your Student Central account)
4. Locate the "Housing Deposit" option. Do NOT pay the Admissions deposit in error. Select the checkbox next to "Housing Deposit"
5. Click "Continue"
6. Continue following remaining prompts to select your payment method and make payment

Step 3 — Complete the Spring 2027 Parent/Guardian Contract Consent form here

Only students who will not be enrolling in any Florida State University classes (including online/remote courses) for the Spring Semester will be permitted to cancel their Spring housing contract. Cancellation of your contract will also result in cancellation of your FSU admission.

To cancel your contract due to non-enrollment:

1. Email housing@fsu.edu to notify us that you will not be enrolling in any FSU courses for the Spring semester, no later than December 1st to avoid financial obligations for Spring rent.

Room type preferences can be submitted as part of the contract process and updated through December 1st without any impact on your contract number.

Most students living on campus are assigned to a shared bedroom with shared bath, which means you will likely share a bedroom with one or two students and share a bathroom with an adjoining shared bedroom. There are no more than 5 students sharing a bathroom in any space on-campus.

Since new Spring 2027 residents are assigned to spaces that are vacated by Fall 2026 residents, our ability to accommodate room type preferences from new spring residents may be limited or not possible.

Spring-contracting students can request one other spring-contracting student as a roommate. Once requested, the other student has 7 calendar days to confirm the mutual request. Roommate requests must be finalized no later than December 1st. Mutually requested roommates will be assigned at the higher/later contract number within the pair.
