EFSC Housing Costs and Payment Options

Review the housing costs below, with options for the current academic year and the upcoming 2023-24 academic year, which is at the same prices as 2022-23. Housing costs are in addition to the $150 housing application fee paid during the application process.

Students who sign an EFSC Housing contract for two major terms (ie: Fall and Spring) have first preference to be placed in housing each academic year, plus have first preference for the optional summer term add-on. Fall-only or Spring-only contracts are available on a space available basis after full academic year residents have been placed.

At the time the housing contract is signed, the student (or if student is under 18 years of age, the student’s parent or legal guardian) must select one of the following payment options for a 2022-2023 academic year contract. The required payments are then posted to the student's EFSC account inside the myEFSC Student Portal. These are payable through the same online payment system used to pay other charges, such as tuition.
