Campus Housing Policies (See http://www.housing.ufl.edu/)

Housing assignments are made on a space-available basis and freshmen who apply early and respond to the Department of Housing and Residence Education in a timely manner will receive priority for campus housing. Due to heavy demand, the university cannot guarantee on-campus housing to all students. A limited number of spaces are reserved for transfer students; interested students should contact housing as soon as they are admitted.
