2025-2026 Housing Selection Information

Each Spring, the Office of Residential Life holds its annual General Housing Selection for current students living and learning at Hendrix College. Below you will learn more information regarding the Housing Selection process, the Housing Application, and other details that help determine assignments for the next academic year. 

If you are an incoming student expected to start classes in the Fall 2025 semester, you will not participate in Housing Selection. Incoming Students will work with Hendrix Admissions to complete and submit a Hendrix Housing questionnaire. For more details on this process, please reach out to your admissions counselor with the Office of Admissions. 

Hendrix Housing Application

All students returning to Hendrix College in the Fall must complete a Hendrix Housing Application, to notify the Office of Residential Life their plans to for the next academic year. The Housing Application opened for current returning students on February 17^th, with a deadline of March 3^rd.

Even if you plan to apply for other housing options, you must complete this form no later than on March 3^rd, 2025 by 11:59PM. Students may click here to log onto their Campus Web to find the updated Hendrix Spring Housing Application. 

Timeslots for Housing Selection by Entry Cohort
Students will receive a assigned timeslot/date (generated at random) based on their entering cohort class year. During the housing selection process, students will select housing in relation to their timeslot. Students should use the earliest timeslot in they are in a group of 2 or more. 

General Housing Selection Dates
Housing Selection timeslots/dates will be released on Tuesday, April 22^nd, 2025. 

Apartment Squatting Options- (applications closed on March 3^rd)
Juniors and Seniors CURRENTLY living in the apartments are eligible to apply to keep their apartment for next year.  Current Juniors and Seniors are able to fill in vacant spaces within their apartment with current Sophomores, but current First Year students are not eligible for squatting.  This policy is in place to ensure that students who have been here the longest have first access to the apartments. In order to squat an apartment (if eligible), students must submit a housing application stating that they are either squatting or living with a student who is squatting. If it is a double, both students must complete a housing application in order to squat that apartment. If triple, all three students must complete a housing application in order to squat that apartment.

Off-Campus Petition - Closed at this time

All undergraduate students are required to live on-campus and purchase an applicable meal plan for the duration of their undergraduate experience at Hendrix College. A student requesting to live off-campus MUST petition to be exempted from this requirement for one of the following reasons:   

• The student resides with a parent/legal guardian within a 35-mile radius of campus 

• The student is 23 years of age or older by the first day of classes in the fall semester  

• The student is legally married 

• The student is the parent of a dependent child 
  

Off Campus Petitions are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, including verification that the students are in good standing with the Conduct Office and the Registrar. Petitions for current students will not be accepted or considered after the April 1st deadline. Incoming students (First Years and Transfers) will work with the housing office in the summer before they matriculate. Current students not approved for off-campus status must participate in the annual housing selection process. Failure to do so will result in the student being assigned to a housing location and meal plan, and responsible for associated costs whether or not the assigned bed is occupied or the meal plan utilized.  

Students who appeal based on living with a parent within a 35-mile radius of campus, with a spouse, or with a dependent child will be required to submit documentation. Please reach out to housing@hendrix.edu with the subject line “Off Campus Housing Documentation” to inquire about what documentation is necessary. All documentation must be submitted to housing@hendrix.edu by April 1st.
