PROSPECTIVE RESIDENTS
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Most individuals that attend Hunter College do not live in the residence hall. While there are over 20 thousand students currently attending Hunter College, only 612 reside in the residence hall. Most students live in apartments and opt to commute from the outer boroughs.
How to Apply
See the application page for full instructions on applying for housing as well as the link for the online application. Applications are only accepted online.
Cost of Living at Hunter College
The housing fee for the 2006-2007 school year (August-May) was approximately $3,300-3,500, plus a security deposit fee of $150 for a single room. There are only 19 graduate apartments with rates of $4,000-$7,000 for the academic year. Apartment rates depend on room size. There is no meal plan at the Residence Hall, however, kitchens are located on each floor, and there is a small café where students can purchase light meals and snacks.
The Room Assignment Process
The Hunter Brookdale Residence houses approximately 612 students. Due to our shortage of space we receive many more requests for housing than we can accommodate, therefore we can not guarantee housing space to every student. The current policy for assignment of rooms provides priority status for returning residents and for students who have been accepted into special academic and scholarship programs.
If you are not selected to receive a room, you are placed on the waiting list. Again, your place on the waiting list is dependent upon a number of factors. It is not one long list of names that are taken in order. For example, if a female first-year student decides to cancel her room assignment, then we cannot take a male graduate student in her place.
Please note that housing is reserved for full-time students only. You must be enrolled in and successfully complete 12 credit hours (undergraduate) or 9 credit hours (graduate) and you must maintain a GPA 2.0 or above each semester in order to continue to live in the Residence Hall. Also, please be aware that the housing contract stipulates that residents will use their rooms as their primary places of residence during the contract term. In order to comply with newly adopted state laws regarding accountability for students in on-campus housing, the Office of Residence Life requires that all residents attend monthly floor meetings. Residents who fail to attend the floor meeting and who fail to sign the occupancy sheet will be considered as “Not in Residence”. The Office of Residence Life reserves the right to cancel the contract of any resident who is classified as “Not in Residence” for more than one month.
Tours
Tour hours change every semester depending on our work student’s office hours. Please call our office for current days and hours. Please note that you must schedule a tour as they will not be granted without previous arrangement.
Dinning Facilities
Our residence hall houses a small cafe located on our main floor. Hours of operations are: Monday to Thursday 7:30am to 7pm – Friday 7:30am to 2:30pm Saturday and Sunday closed. There is also a small store run by the RA staff that is open 6PM to11PM, Sunday thru Thursday.
