Great news rising juniors/seniors! You’ll have an opportunity to secure your Elon campus housing earlier than ever through our early same-space and same-apartment renewal process, available December 1–December 11 for the 2027–2028 academic year. This is your chance to plan ahead, keep the space you love, and make housing one less thing to worry about next year!

NOTE: This is an optional process to renew your same-space housing early. We will still have our typical housing selection processes for rising juniors/seniors in February for student who want to try to move from one apartment-type to another for the following year (i.e. going from Oaks to Station, as Station new residents, for example).

Elon Housing Renewal

During the renewal period:

  • Rising Juniors/Seniors in residence hall spaces may renew their same space, except students assigned to designated Living-Learning Community (LLC) floors.*
  • Rising Juniors/Seniors in apartments may renew their same apartment and bedrooms if they have a fully matched roommate group that fills the full space.*
    • The student/s assigned to the apartment for Spring 2027 are the students eligible to renew that apartment for Fall 2027–Spring 2028.
    • If the full group in spring is not renewing together, those remaining can “pull-in” other rising juniors/seniors to their renewal. You still need to roommate match with your group (to include roommate(s) that may be abroad for Spring 2027 and not currently assigned or living in the space)
    • One spring resident of the apartment will need to log in and renew the space for the full roommate group.
    • Students who are in designated AM apartments cannot renew for the following year.*
  • *Students living in Loy Houses, LLCs, AM apartments, or apartments without fully matched roommate groups will not be eligible for same-space renewal. However, if this applies to you and you are interested in living on-campus for next year, please contact Residence Life at residencelife@elon.edu. We will work with you to explore other housing options and help you secure your campus housing earlier than ever.

How to Renew Your Same-Space

From December 1-11, students will need to:
  1. All individually complete the Housing Application for 2027-2028.
  2. Once applications are completed, roommate match as a group (inside the Housing Application).
  3. Once fully roommate matched, one individual who is assigned to the space in Spring 2027 will be able to access the second part of the Housing Application to actually re-select their same space and assign their roommate group into bed spaces.
    1. There is no need to rush during the renewal period. You will have from December 1 through December 11 to roommate match and complete the renewal process.

(Note: This early renewal opportunity does not apply to rising sophomores at this time.)    

More information and step-by-step instructions will be shared before the renewal period begins. Start talking with your roommates about next year now so you’re ready to take advantage of this opportunity!
