Where do first-year students live?
During the 2022-2023 academic year, first-year students will live in the following residence halls: Stavig Hall, Tuve Hall, Wagoner Hall, and Bergsaker Hall.
How are housing assignments decided?
The Augustana community believes it is our responsibility to empower students to choose the best college fit for themselves, on a timeline that works for them. To that end, we do not incentivize early decision and deposits as a way of getting first choice for a student’s residence hall preference.
All students who submit their housing application by May 1 will receive equal consideration for their housing preference as indicated in their housing application. While it is our goal to place all students in either their first or second residence hall preference, that is subject to change based on changing enrollment numbers.
Students who submit their housing application after May 1 will be placed in their housing assignment based on the availability in each residence hall. Housing assignments will be posted in the student portal the first week in July.
What are my meal plan choices?
As a first-year student, you have two meal plan choices, The Unlimited Plan and The Fifteen Plan. Both plans are the same price and can be changed at the semester.
