Georgia Tech Housing is not guaranteed and not required for any student. Housing is limited and will be awarded via the housing lottery process. If selected from the lottery, students will receive a randomized lottery number to participate in the room selection (self-assign) process. If not selected from the lottery, students will be assigned to the waitlist in accordance with their lottery number. If they apply after the priority deadline, they will be assigned to the waitlist in order of application. Students should research and consider off-campus housing options as well. 

Family housing options include one- and two-bedroom unfurnished apartments at Tenth and Home. This is available to those living full-time with a spouse or partner, and/or child(ren). 

Single, graduate student housing options include one- and two-bedroom furnished apartments at Tenth and Home. Two-bedroom options are for two roommates.

No. Single students are not eligible for FAMILY (unfurnished) housing and may not apply for FAMILY housing. 

Once a student is admitted by their department, the Office of Graduate Education will complete an application verification and evaluation process which can take between six to eight weeks from the date that your required documents are received. In some cases, it can take up to 12 weeks during peak admission times. Students can apply for housing once their admission is verified and finalized by Graduate Education.

Domestic Applicant - After You Apply

International Applicant - After You Apply

Graduate students who will not live with a spouse/domestic partner and/or children should complete the standard Housing APPLICATION - do not complete the FAMILY application.

Any undergraduate or graduate student who plans to live with their spouse/domestic partner and/or children should complete the FAMILY application.

Students submit a housing application to participate in the lottery for a "bed-space" on campus. You will assign yourself to a specific room and bed space from the available inventory at the time you self-assign. You do not choose a room or room type or specify any preference when you apply for housing.

Family and Graduate Student Housing:

Students are assigned a time-ticket with a day and time to login to My Housing and select a room during the self-assign process in spring. Time-tickets are assigned as follows:

• New Students: Time-tickets are assigned by a randomized lottery number.
• Current Students: Time-tickets are assigned by level, based on the number of Georgia Tech credit hours earned starting with Ph.D. students. More credit hours = more choices. 

You will need to select from the available inventory. If there are no one-bedroom apartments available, you can select an available bedroom in a two-bedroom apartment or choose to cancel your application.

After you successfully secure housing via the lottery, you can choose a roommate from other graduate students who have also successfully secured housing via the lottery.

During the self-assign process, the student with the earlier time-ticket can assign both themself and their roommate to available bedrooms in a two-bedroom apartment.

Students who have selected a roommate will have the option to self-assign to furnished two-bedroom apartments only. 

Students on the waitlist cannot be selected during the roommate selection process. If your intended roommate gets off the waitlist after self-assign occurs and someone else is assigned to your apartment, you can use room swap to get together. 

Yes. You may apply for FAMILY housing and indicate that you have a domestic partner. Please visit the Resource tab at My Housing to upload the approved domestic partner documentation from the Dean of Students prior to move-in.

No. Only the Georgia Tech student should apply for FAMILY Housing. The applicant will provide their spouse/domestic partner and/or children's information on the application.

If your spouse or domestic partner is also a Georgia Tech student, only one of you should complete the application.

Yes. If you plan to live with your spouse on-campus, apply for FAMILY Housing and provide your fiancé's details on the application. 

On-campus housing is specifically for students who are taking classes. All students living on campus are required to be enrolled full-time, 12 credit hours for the Fall and Spring semesters. For the summer term, residents must be enrolled in at least 1-3 credit hours. If this is your final semester before graduating, we will work with you while you complete your required degree plan.  

The terms for both Family and Graduate Housing are based on the Georgia Tech academic calendar. Students apply for the Academic Year term and the Summer term. The contract (lease) is for the complete term. 

Unlike all other Georgia Tech on-campus housing, FAMILY Housing rent is paid monthly. The first and last months rent are prorated from move-in and move-out dates. The contract (lease) dates are not adjusted to the beginning or end of the month.

All contract cancellation penalty terms and dates apply to FAMILY Housing. 

FAMILY Housing: Rent is paid on a monthly basis for Family housing. Monthly rent is due on or before the first business day of each month. Late fees are charged to the account if the rent is not paid by 2:00 p.m. on the tenth day of the month.

GRADUATE STUDENT Housing: All other students pay the housing fee on a semesterly basis. Housing Fees are charged at the beginning of each academic semester to the student's bursar account and are due at the same time as tuition.

All students pay housing rent and fees via the Payment Portal on the Bursar's website.  

You can view current Housing Rates on the Rates page of the website.

As always, FAMILY Housing (unfurnished apartment) is paid monthly. All other housing is paid semesterly. 

All apartments are occupied and for privacy and security reasons, we do not offer tours. You may view the virtual tours and images found on the website for each building from the Explore Housing Options menu.
