Housing Costs

Residence Hall Housing

ROOM CHARGES ON THE COLLEGE PLACE CAMPUS

Rent for a room with two occupants is as follows:

When rooms are available, single occupancy is permitted at a rate of 150 percent of regular room rate.

Upon the student's departure, charges for delayed departure, an uncleaned or damaged room, or failure to return keys may be applied to the student's account. (For a complete listing of residence hall fines, please refer to the online Residential Life Handbook.)

Rooms in Hansen Hall are usually available for single occupancy only. Should double occupancy be approved, rent would be charged at the same rate as Foreman Hall for each occupant.

ROOM DEPOSIT - PORTLAND CAMPUS

A $200 deposit is required to reserve a room in Hansen Hall. Upon the student's departure, a refund of up to $130 may be applied to the student's account. Charges for delayed departure, an uncleaned or damaged room, or failure to return keys are also applied. Should the student not enroll, the entire deposit is refunded.

Cafeteria Expenses

At registration, students living in residence halls are able to select from the following buffet-style, all-you-can-eat meal plans:

The Gold Plan is the default meal plan, students may change their meal plan within the first 10 days of a quarter. Meals do not carry over from week to week. Meal plan weekly, reset is on each Friday morning prior to breakfast. 

Flex dollars work like a pre-paid debit card and are available for use throughout the quarter in the cafeteria or Student Association Center (SAC). A student can also save them up just in case they run out of meals in their selected Plan. The SAC takes either cash or Flex dollars. Flex dollars do carry over from week to week, but not from one quarter to another. Should a student use all their Flex dollars, they are able to charge meal purchases to their student account.

Student can only use one of their meals at each meal time. Additional meals at the same meal time are counted as guests.

Village students may select a meal plan or pay for purchases with their ID card, cash, or a credit card.

University-Owned Off-Campus Housing

Walla Walla University owns a limited number of apartments and houses for students to rent. Rent is charged to the student account in 3-month increments and is prorated based on check in and check out dates.

Students must apply for housing during open application periods. Priority is granted to applicants who are married and/or have children and/or are 22 years of age or older. Housing offers are made to other applicants on a first-come, first-served basis. Financial arrangements must be approved by Student Financial Services before a student may move into a residence. 

Students not registered for the following quarter are required to vacate the day after the last day of finals, or if graduating in June, the day following the graduation commencement. A 30-day "move out" notice is required. Students not giving a 30-day notice may forfeit up to 30 days of rent. Upon vacating, students are responsible for restoring the residence to its initial clean condition. If there are charges for an incomplete move out, cleaning, damages, moving out late, or failure to return keys, these charges will be added to the student's account.
