Summer Research Scholars are eligible for a discounted on-campus housing rate (50%). This discount is only applicable to USD students that Register as a Research Scholar. The discount only applies to shared rooms; students living in single rooms will be required to pay the full, non-discounted rate. Please note that the Office of Undergraduate Research provides an updated registered research scholar roster to Housing/Residential Life once per week on Fridays.
Students will work directly with Residential Life to make their housing arrangements and all questions regarding summer housing should be directed to Residential Life. The Office of Undergraduate Research provides housing information as a courtesy, but is not involved in arrangements of housing.
In order to be eligible for the 50% discount rate, USD students must be sure to add "summer research scholar" and the group that they belong to in the comment section of the housing application.
For example: "Beckman Scholar"
Non USD students living on-campus during the summer while conducting research, need to reach out to Residential Life directly.
**For non-USD students that are not part of any USD summer research program: Before registering as a research scholar the Office of Undergraduate Research must receive an email from the USD faculty research mentor that confirms their commitment to mentor you, the dates you will be engaged in research and if you are participating in research at USD as part of a program from your home institution (Program Name/Program Director Name & email). The email can be sent to ugresearch@sandiego.edu, subject line: Non-USD Research Scholar Research Mentor Commitment.**
Applications for summer housing are usually available in late April. Billing for housing is done on the 15th of the month (if applicable). Students will not be billed at check-in and instead will receive their first bill at the same time as they receive their stipend payments.
