Deposit, Application, and College Housing License Agreement
Below you will find links to the Campus Housing forms and applications. The 2013-2014 Housing Application is available below. Read the full list and select the forms that apply to you. If you are confused at any point, feel free to contact the Office of Residence Life by phone at 617-521-1096 or email at ResLife@simmons.edu to identify the correct forms.
To live on campus, the Office of Residence Life needs to have two items:
- Housing deposit. If you are a current or returning resident, you most likely have a housing deposit on file; you will be contacted directly if you do not. If you are a new undergraduate student, you will send your deposit to Admission. If you are a new graduate student, Dix scholar, or a commuter, you will send your deposit with deposit form directly to the Office of Residence Life
- Housing application. By filling out the housing application you are also electronically signing the College Housing License Agreement.
All forms are online except the General Housing Deposit form, which must be mailed/delivered to the Office of Residence Life with your check.
Housing Application
If you are a first time, first-year student planning to move on campus:
You will need to fill out a Undergraduate Housing Application. We hope to make the application available in late April for the fall. You will need to fill out a Housing Application starting in late September if you are planning to move on-campus in January. You do not need to know a roommate to fill out a Housing Application. You may make changes to your housing application after it has been submitted (see below).
If you are an undergraduate student planning to continue living on-campus, a commuter moving to on-campus housing, a student returning from a leave of absence, a student returning from Study Abroad, or any other student that is not a first-year student moving on-campus for the first time:
You will need to fill out a Undergraduate Housing Application before housing selection. Please review the room selection time line and process page for more information.
If you would like to make changes to your Housing Application:
You may make changes to your housing application after it has been submitted by filling out the Housing Change form. Changes made after June 30th for fall semester are not guaranteed to be honored.

A deposit of $250 is necessary to be placed on the housing list (see deposit section above). Rooms will be filled in the order in which we received the housing deposit.
Note: Graduate students and Dix Scholars who wish to remain in their current rooms in North Hall will not need to participate in the room selection process.
