Room Draw for the 2023-2024 Academic Year will include the Graduate College, Annexes, Edwards Place locations, Lakeside Apartments and Lawrence Apartments.  As scheduled the Meadows Graduate Housing Complex is under construction and therefore will not be included in this spring’s Room Draw process.  The Meadows Graduate Housing Complex is expected to be available during the spring 2024 Room Draw process. We will keep the graduate student community updated in the coming months on the completion of Meadows and occupancy in 2024.

In response to feedback received from students and the Graduate Housing Advisory Board (GHAB), we will be increasing the number of pet-friendly units available for Graduate students at Lawrence Apartments. 

In addition to the current pet-friendly units, all units in the below areas will become pet-friendly:

• Lawrence Building 1, 1^st through 6^th floors
• Lawrence 8 and 9, 1^st floor
• Lawrence 10, 11, and 12, 1^st and 2^nd floors
• Lawrence 13 and 14, 1^st floor

Students residing in pet-friendly units will be charged a non-refundable $100 pet cleaning fee per contract holder.   If a student moves to a new unit, they will be charged an additional cleaning fee for the new unit.  

Renewals will be done online again this year, and will become available on February 6, 2023.

Please read the following if you wish to renew your contract:
