Interim housing is a service provided by the Office of Residential Life at
no cost to students or departments. It is generally intended to be used by
students who have on-campus housing for two consecutive terms and need to
remain on campus during the break between those terms. It is also used by
students whose travel arrangements cause the need to arrive a day or so before
we open for a given term, or leave a day or so after we close at the end of a
term. Interim housing is not guaranteed. Students returning from a
withdrawal or suspension are not eligible for interim housing unless express
permission is granted to the Undergraduate Housing Office by the student’s
dean.
If you want housing during the interim period you must apply for interim
housing. The only exceptions to this rule are varsity athletes requiring
interim housing to participate in college-approved practice. These students
must coordinate interim housing through their coach/the Department of
Athletics.
The Interim Housing Application is available at www.dartmouth.edu/~orl/housing/forms.

Students who apply after a given term’s deadline, or who arrive early or
stay late without prior authorization from the Undergraduate Housing Office,
are subject to a $50 late fee.
Interim Eligibility and Assignments
Priority is given to students who are living on campus for the two terms
that bracket the interim period. Late departure and early arrival requests will
be considered, although depending on room availability and your documentation,
we may not be able to approve all the dates you request.
In addition to living on campus for at least one of the two terms, you must
meet one or more of the following criteria:
- Involvement in a College-Related Activity (academic
research, athletic team or college employment). Documentation from your
professor/employer/coach is required.
- Travel Constraints. In order to be approved for interim
housing based on travel constraints, you must provide a copy of your airline,
train or bus ticket. Typically this is only granted for students who live 500
miles or more from Dartmouth.
- International Student. When completing your application,
please fully document the dates you need housing and the reasons why you must
be on campus.
Students are notified of their status via Blitz beginning two weeks after
the deadline. Students are generally housed in their regularly assigned room
for the approved interim period. This is not possible during the spring/summer
interim when the majority of interim residents are relocated to a designated
cluster for the days they are approved in order to accommodate Commencement and
Reunion guests.
Questions about interim housing can be answered by calling (603-646-3093),
emailing, or stopping by
the Undergraduate Housing Office.
