Housing and Residence Life

Housing and Meals Rates

Housing and dining rates are the per-person cost for housing and meals. The residence hall contract is for a full academic year unless the resident is transferring, studying abroad, withdrawing or graduating.

A residence hall meal plan is required in all halls other than Britton/Hadley. Housing and Meals rates are set by the WMU Board of Trustees.
