Student Services

  • Housing — First Year students residing in the McCormick Road, Alderman Road and Gooch/Dillard residence halls need to submit a J-Term Housing Application (www.virginia.edu/housing). The deadline for submitting the housing application is December 17, 2011. All upperclass housing residences, including Residential Colleges, will be accessible to assigned residents during the J-Term period, so no application is necessary for students living in upperclass housing. All students should be prepared for reduced services, and must take extra precautions for their personal safety.
  • Guest Housing - J-Term housing for visiting students is available at The Cavalier Inn. The Cavalier Inn features free Wi-Fi, complimentary breakfast, and close proximity to Central Grounds libraries, classrooms, and the Academical Village.
