Applications for Summer 2025 will open on January 1, 2025.
The first review of Winter 2025 applications will take place on November 15th.
Campus housing eligibility
- You must be accepted into a YukonU program prior to applying. First-year students are required to upload their Letter of Acceptance with the Campus Housing application.
- Priority is given to full time YukonU students. Part time students are considered when availability permits.
Prioritization
Applications are processed according to the Campus Housing Intake Policy. First year students, students from Yukon communities and students with accessibility needs are given first priority. Secondary priority is given to students from other northern communities.
Accessibility needs
Priority consideration is given to students whose ability to attend the University is dependent on securing campus housing as a result of an accessibility need. Such needs may be medical, sensory, physical, cognitive or psychological in nature. The Campus Housing Office will work closely with the Learning Assistance Centre to support your needs, while maintaining your privacy and confidentiality.
Individual: a single YukonU student named as the sole occupant in the contract.
Couple: a YukonU student living with a partner listed as a co-occupant. Partners who are also students can be contracted independently but reside in the same unit.
Children/Family: a YukonU student living with child/ren or child/ren and a partner or secondary caregiver listed as co-occupants.
Campus Housing contracts are not guaranteed for the length of your program. Contracts range from 4 to 10 months and can span 1 to 3 academic terms.
Your requested contract length cannot exceed the end of your classes (e.g. you cannot contract to June if your classes are ending in April).
You must reapply for each academic year (Fall term is the start of an academic year).

Check your email regularly for an Offer of Accommodation or Waitlist Notification and follow the necessary steps.
Once reviews have taken place, an email will be sent to your YukonU email account with an update. Updates come in the form of Offers of Accommodation, Waitlist Notifications, Renewed Waitlist Notifications or Confirmations of Information/Interest.
Note: Should an Offer of Accommodation be made, you will have a maximum of two weeks to accept the offer by submitting your contract and paying your Hold Fee.
A Waitlist Notification means that your application was considered in the last round of review, but no units were available to make an offer. Waitlisted applications stay in the system for the length of the academic year and are actively reviewed. At least three rounds of review are completed prior to the start of each term. Waitlists are also reviewed each time a unit is prematurely vacated.
You can apply to live with your partner, caregiver and/or child/ren. A second adult co-occupant can be listed if their presence is as a secondary caregiver and is required for you to attend your program. The addition of another family member is based on approval from the Campus Housing Office is subject to an additional fee.
If requesting shared accommodation, you can request a specific roommate(s) in your application. It is recommended that the listed roommate also list you on their application to demonstrate mutual agreement of the request. Campus Housing will make their best effort to approve roommate requests.
