Transitional Housing

Transitional housing is only available for Brandeis students moving from one on-campus housing assignment to another. Hence, students in transitional housing are "transitioning" from a spring to summer assignment or a summer to fall assignment.

Transitional Housing Dates

  • Spring Stay Past Closing Housing: May 14 at 12 noon - May 19, 2024 at 12 noon. *Stay Past Closing housing is automatically included for graduating seniors. 
  • Spring to Summer: May 19 - June 2, 2025
  • Summer to Fall: August 9 - August 23, 2025

Students in Spring to Summer transitional housing will be assigned a move date and must be prepared to move out of transitional housing and into summer housing as soon as their summer space is ready (as early as May 21st, 2025). We require that all students in transitional housing stay on campus during the transitional housing period to move to their summer housing assignment on their assigned date.

Summer - Fall transitional housing will likely be in students' fall assignments where possible. Students signing up for Summer - Fall transitional housing will be required to stay on campus during the entire transitional housing period and will be expected to move to their fall assignment as soon as the space is ready.

Transitional Housing Rates

Stay Past Closing Housing costs $50/day (no charge for graduating seniors). Spring to Summer Transitional Housing will cost a flat rate of $300. Summer to Fall Transitional Housing will cost a flat rate of $300. 

Transitional Housing Application

Students can sign up for Spring - Summer Transitional Housing through the Summer Housing Application on their MyHousing PortalApplications for all types of Summer housing are due by May 5, 2025.

A separate application for Summer - Fall Transitional Housing will be open in the MyHousing Portal from July 15 - 31, 2025 for summer residents who need to add Summer - Fall Transitional Housing.
