Admissions

Every Student Who Has Submitted a VSU Housing Application will Receive a Housing Assignment

Greetings, Trojan Family,  We are excited to welcome each of you back for the upcoming fall semester. We are thrilled to welcome more than 1500 new students to our Trojan Family this semester. This is evidence that the word is spreading that Greater Happens Here. At VSU, we aim to offer a transformative education to anyone who desires our unmatched VSU experience. That goal comes with its share of growth challenges. We know that you agree that VSU’s growth and the opportunity to educate other students just like you are worth these temporary challenges. To that end, please note the below updates on VSU housing for fall 2023.

EVERY STUDENT WHO HAS SUBMITTED A VSU HOUSING APPLICATION WILL RECEIVE A HOUSING ASSIGNMENT.  

Currently, on-campus housing is full. To accommodate the increased requests for student housing, students are being assigned to one of our partner off-campus housing options, which include local hotels, apartment complexes, and Richard Bland College. Every student who has submitted a housing application has either already received their housing assignment or sent a notice in their BANNER account indicating that their room will be assigned as soon as spaces are ready. Two new modular annex locations will be ready for occupancy before classes begin. The last annex will be available for students in September. Some off-campus students will be reassigned to that unit once it is complete. 

VSU HOUSING INFORMATION AT A GLANCE: 

  • Housing will be offered for all VSU students who have applied for housing.
  • Every student who submitted a housing application has already received their housing assignment or sent a notice in their BANNER account indicating that their room will be assigned as soon as spaces are ready.
