Honors Housing

A picture of the Mark Twain Residence Hall.

As an Honors student, you may choose (but are not required) to live in the Mark Twain Residence Hall. Both men and women live in the hall, which has some ADA accessible rooms. Benefits include dedicated study areas, on-site Honors advising and workshops, and Honors-exclusive events. Honors students who choose not to live in the Mark Twain Residence Hall are welcome to visit and participate in events and activities.

Deadlines

December 1

Housing preference form and contract available. University policy requires freshmen to live in university housing. The preference form tells us what you need to thrive at Mizzou. Specify what you’re looking for in a room. Preference forms are available from Dec. 1 and require a $25 non-refundable processing fee. You can update your preference form any time before Feb. 1 to be included in the first round of room assignments. Admitted students, check your mailbox for a brochure with information about living, learning and thriving on campus.

February 1

Priority deadline to complete housing preference form and contract. Complete your preference form and submit your housing and dining contract to be included in the first round of room assignments.

March 1

Parking assignments and first round of room assignments available. If you completed your preference form and contract by Feb. 1, you can log into the Housing Portal to view your room assignment. After March 1, Freshman Interest Groups (FIG) have very limited availability. You are welcome to preference either of these options. However, if MU Housing is unable to place you in a FIG, they will utilize your other preferences. Not all preferences can be met during the second round of housing assignments.

Second round of room assignments available. Log into the Housing Portal to view your room assignment.
