Contracting Closes at 11:59pm Friday, May 1st.
As of 11:59pm on Friday, May 1, 2026, University Housing has stopped accepting Residence Hall Contracts for the 2026-2027 Academic Year. If you do not have a submitted contract or a submitted exemption at this time, you will be given an automatic exemption from the UWM Residency Requirement and may pursue other housing options through the Off-Campus Resource Center. We do acknowledge that we will have cancellations over the next coming months and encourage you to place yourself on our residence hall wait list through the Housing Portal if you still wish to live with us in University Housing. We will offer contracts based on the wait list as spaces become available.

Suitemate Agreement

Two resident roommates enjoying their living space.

Whether you have a roommate or just additional suitemates you are bound to have a great experience living in the Residence Halls at UW-Milwaukee! One of the most important experiences of residents’ time on campus is living with other residents.

Roommate/suitemates can be the source of anywhere from deep friendship to chronic aggravation, depending on the relationship they form. Having a good relationship with those you live with takes effort. University Housing has developed an Online Roommate/Suitemate Agreement to help you and the ones you live with negotiate living and learning together so you can be successful
