University Residences at Purdue

09/20/2026

As students settle in, now is a great time to start thinking about housing for next year. Planning ahead can help reduce stress later and give your student more time to focus on what matters most.

Here are some housing options to discuss with your student:

➡️ Reapplying for University Residences housing in West Lafayette from Sept. 28-Oct. 4.
➡️ Joining a Purdue fraternity, sorority or cooperative. Students should check with their chapter for housing deadlines and requirements.
➡️ Connecting with Off-Campus Housing in the Office of the Dean of Students to find listings, roommate help and other resources for off-campus living.
