Hopefully, the links on this page will provide you with the information and resources you will need to help you as you mentor your student through the academic year and into their future! If you are still unable to find what you need, see our Housing Basics webpage, or please feel free to contact University Housing & Campus Dining with your request.
As we near the end of any term during the academic year, there are deadlines and information specific to that particular term that are important to, and will impact our residents. In the interest of informing parents and family members as well as our residents, we have created the following document for your use. Please feel free to contact University Housing if you have any questions regarding end of term procedures or deadlines.

Whether you are a parent, family member or friend of a current resident looking for information on just exactly what your student or friend and the community that they live and learn in is up to this current year. Or you are a parent or family member of a student who will be attending WOU (and living on campus) in the coming year(s) and are curious about what life in the residence halls might look like for your student. If it is information you are after, Insights, the University Housing newsletter, will be a good place to start.
Insights should do just that - give you some insight into the programs, information, and timelines that will work to shape your student and their experience while living on campus at Western Oregon University. As issues become available, they will be posted quarterly here. In this issue, you will find resources for both you and your student as you tackle this new chapter in life, important dates and information and hopefully learn a bit yourself along the way. Take a look - gain some Insight!
