Housing Assistance
Emergency Bed Program
If you're a currently enrolled student facing housing insecurity, you can get temporary
emergency housing on campus. This program is for students who don’t have a safe or
stable place to sleep. While you stay in emergency housing, we'll work with you on
planning your next steps. If you're struggling with housing, contact a Case Manager
to discuss your situation and get the help you need.
