Housing Office Housing Applications

Keys to understanding the housing process:

  1. Login to your myWestmont portal and submit your housing application form(s) for the '25-'26 academic year.
  2. The applications are for mainly for GROUP applications. Students must "fill a room" in order to reserve one. Each group must be "complete"--i.e. all persons group must confirm their participation. The student who initiates the request will be automatically confirmed; other group members need to simply hit the "confirm" button on their student portal if they've been included in a group. A student can be part of 1 group request in each distinct category.
  3. The only exceptions to the GROUP requirement are the OFF CAMPUS application and SOLO request form. Off Campus is granted on an individual basis. Solo requests are for those who have not found a roommate/s and requests are considered after all group requests have been considered. Solo requests are NOT requests for single occupancy rooms. If you qualify and are approved for a particular housing accommodation by the Accessibility Resource Office, please utilize the ARO request form on the Fall Housing Request page.
  4. Submitting a request is merely the first step.  After a request is submitted, WATCH for an email notification from Housing to learn if your request is approved and the details for room selection. At least one member of your group (or a proxy) must ATTEND your virtual room selection event to choose a specific room.
  5. WARNING: If at least one member of your group (or proxy) fails to attend your room selection event, you will move to the bottom of the list. At the end of the room selection event, Housing reserves the right to place your group in whatever room is left available for that particular selection event.
  6. Request are due by midnight on the respective Due Date. No late requests are accepted.
  7. Pay attention to deadlines and submit a new request if needed. If you/your group is not selected for a certain type of housing, be sure to submit a request for your next choice before its deadline.
  8. Requesting a roommate: must be a currently enrolled student. Incoming students for Fall (e.g. transfers, new first-years), and students who are on a leave of absence or taking a "gap" semester for Fall are not eligible to use the request forms. Please contact the Director of Housing for assistance in these cases.
  9. Be sure your request is accurate: be certain all members of your group qualify to request that particular form's housing (i.e. no juniors or seniors on upper campus; only juniors or seniors for GLC or OV). Every member of the group must approve their participation via their student portal for the request to be "complete". Any anomaly may delay or disqualify your request.
