On behalf of the Office of Residence Life, congratulations on being accepted and welcome to SUNY New Paltz.
You are about to begin one of the most exciting times in your life and we’re thrilled you have decided to make New Paltz a part of your journey.
Life in the residence halls is exciting, fun, and challenging. You will learn about different cultures, interests, and values while your roommates and community members learn about you.
Living on campus will enhance your university experience by providing you many opportunities to develop lasting and memorable relationships with your roommate(s), neighbors, student staff members, and others on campus. It is our goal to provide you with learning experiences that will benefit your overall growth and development as a productive citizen in society. We encourage you to take the time to learn new things, experience new ideas and develop new friendships while living in our community.

NEXT STEPS
Students who are interested in living on campus
PLEASE NOTE:
Housing on campus is limited. The first 75 transfers who pay the Advance Room Deposit will be guaranteed housing for spring 2025.
All other students will be placed on a waitlist for housing.
Your Admissions Status Portal will indicate whether you can still pay the Advance Room Deposit, or whether you must email us to request to be placed on the waitlist.
- Students who are able to pay their room deposit and submit a Residence Hall License can submit a Spring 2025 On-Campus Housing Request From starting on November 11th.
- Students who must request to be placed on the waitlist can email us at reslife@newpaltz.edu. Waitlisted students will be granted housing and receive instructions on how to secure a room if/when space becomes available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Please follow the instructions provided on the Admission Status Portal.
We are in the process of making changes to our website and our room assignment process for the fall.
For now, please pay your Advance Room Deposit on the Admissions Status Portal if you have not already done so.
Please return to this page for updates on January 15th.
