Summer Housing

To be eligible to live in a University residence hall during the summer, you must

  1. be a USD student in good academic standing;
  2. have been enrolled at USD during the just completed spring semester or are enrolled (or intend to be enrolled) at USD for the upcoming fall semester; and
  3. be making normal progress toward the completion of a USD degree.

Exceptions to these policies will be considered but must be requested in writing and approved by the Department of Residential Life prior to the start of the summer session. All nonaffiliated visitors who are not academic year students enrolled at the University of San Diego will be referred to USD's Hospitality Services regarding their summer housing requests.

The summer housing application will be available in late April/ early May. Applications will be processed on a rolling basis but must be submitted to USD 5 business days prior to your requested move in day to avoid a $65 late application fee.

Room Rates

Room rates are based on room occupancy type. Students can indicate their preference on their summer housing application. These rates are confirmed for the summer of 2026.

Residence Halls

There are two main areas where summer residents are housed. The San Antonio de Padua Apartments are located in the Valley Housing Area and offer apartment housing in mainly shared one-bedroom units. Manchester Village is located on the northeast corner of campus. All apartment style areas offer living rooms, bedrooms (mostly shared rooms in shared apartment housing), dining areas and full kitchens with stoves and refrigerators.

All of the apartment units are furnished and wired for WiFi Internet access. Each resident has an extra long twin-size bed (some Manchester Village rooms offer full-size beds), dresser, desk, and desk chair. However, residents must provide their own linens (i.e. pillow, mattress cover, sheets, blanket, and towels), and a desk lamp, if desired. No small appliances are provided or dishes or cooking and eating utensils.
