Take care of day-to-day living needs! Housing, parking and your ¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ ID are key daily essentials. Tackle these in any order you choose - but be certain you check these items off of your must-do list.

Housing 

• If you are looking to live on campus, submit your application on the University Housing website. Applications for housing open Oct. 15 for incoming spring students and Feb. 1 for incoming fall students.

¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ ID, FLASHcard!

• See current instructions on how to upload your photo and where to pick up your FLASHcard. 
• The FLASHcard is your ¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ ID card and more. Your card will let you take materials out of the ¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ libraries, access services such as Student Recreation and Wellness Center and athletic events, and purchase goods and services both on and off campus. If you have a meal plan, you will use your FLASHcard to purchase meals in our dining halls.

Parking Permit

• To find out which parking permit is best for you, visit the parking services website.

Creating and embracing an inclusive environment is important to the mission of ¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ. We recognize that some students use a name other than their legal name to identify themselves, so ¶¶MÅ®ÆÍ has established a process for students to request a chosen name. We suggest completing this before you arrive on campus.

Here are the steps for indicating a chosen name:

1. Log in to FlashLine and select "Student" in the left-hand column.
2. Under "Student," select "Resources."
3. Under "Resources," select "Requests and Authorizations."
4. The webpage will be displayed; double click on "Chosen Name Request."
