HOUSING CONTRACTS The Department of Housing and Residential Life does not guarantee your choice of residence hall or room preferences. Assignments are done on a first-come, first-served basis and on space availability. Follow these five easy steps to apply for housing and complete your contract: 1) Once you’re admitted, be sure to get your FAU Student ID and password and have them ready. 2) Log in to MyFau.fau.edu and click on the Students tab. 3) Navigate to the Housing and Residential Life channel and click on Housing Online. 4) Log in under Apply Online. 5) Follow the on-screen instructions to complete your contract, answering all questions along the way*. *You may be required to pay a deposit. If you are, the system will forward you to the online payment site. You can pay by credit card or electronic check. Upon successful completion and submission of your online contract, you will see a notification on your screen saying “Thanks for submitting your contract.” A copy of this page will be sent to your FAU e-mail account. If you do not see the “Thanks for submitting your contract” page, your submission failed. We will not be able to process your contract and you will have to resubmit the contract. Tips for successful contract submission: •Read through the entire contract before agreeing to it. •Print a copy of your contract for your records. Roommate requests are due by April 1 for the fall semester and November 1 for the spring semester. Requests can be made online through the MyHousing tab in MyFAU.
