Step By Step Guide: UNH Freshman Housing Application
Patrick Poulin

This article provides guidance to incoming first-year students filling out the University Of New Hampshire housing application. Please note that your application may look different than mine based on the options you choose.

WELCOME TO UNH!


1.

Let's get started! Click on the "Visit University Login Page" link at the top of the page.

2.

Log in using your UNH ID and password.

3.

Now that you are logged in you may click the "Housing Application" tab highlighted in the image above.

4.

Click the Academic year you are applying for, in this case it is 2017-2018. Then press "Save and Continue."

5.

Welcome to the 11-step housing application. Press "Save and Continue" to move forward.

6.

Please read the room and board agreement carefully as it contains important information about housing.

7.

To confirm that you agree to the terms of the Room & Board Agreement, input your UNH ID number. If you don't know it you can look it up here. Tip: Keep this number handy as you’ll need it often during your Wildcat career! Press "Agree" to move on.

8.

Select a meal plan for next year.

Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

9.

Would you like to add Dining Dollars to your ID card? Select an amount, or, choose “none” from the drop-down menu. Dining dollars do not carry forward from semester to semester. They can be used at campus convenience stores, vending machines, and retail food locations like Philly Café and the Dairy Bar. Press "Save and Continue" to move on. To learn more about Dining Dollars, go here. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

10.

If you will need vacation housing during one or more of the break periods, (Winter break, spring break, etc.) enter that here. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

11.

An important part of the housing application is preferencing in which building or area of campus you would like to live. UNH has many great and unique communities to offer. I suggest doing some research on the halls here, then ranking your community preferences on this page. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

12.

In this step you will preference the type of room you would like to be assigned to. There are many options such as suites (rooms with a shared bath), and traditional style singles, doubles, triples, built-up triples, and quad rooms. Be sure to rank all of your preferences in order. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

13.

Enter your personal contact information and your emergency contact's information. You must enter valid contact information in all fields before being able to submit this page. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

14.

In the case that you don't have a roommate in mind or plans fall through, UNH Housing has put together a brief questionnaire to help them find a good match for you. It is important that you answer this survey as truthfully as possible. Your answers are only viewed by the Housing assignments team for the purposes of roommate matching. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

15.

This is the roommate request/information page. If you have a specific roommate(s) in mind, this page gets you started. Your intended roommate must also specifically request you on his/her application. All specific roommate requests must be submitted by May 10! If you have no roommate(s) to request, just press "Save and Continue" to move on.

16.

On this page you may request a specific roommate. You and your potential roommate(s) will each give each other your screen names. Your screen name will appear on this page (Mine does not since I have a test account). After you put in their screen name press "Search" to find them. Press "Save and Continue" to move on.

17.

On this page you can voluntarily input medical information. Any information shared here will only be accessed by UNH personnel in the event of an emergency on your behalf. Click "Save and Continue" to move on.

18.

Congratulations! You have successfully completed the UNH Housing Application. Check this summary page over carefully for accuracy. If you have any questions about housing you may contact housing at 603-862-2120 or by email at housing.office@unh.edu.

If you have any other UNH-related questions I would be happy to answer them for you. You can contact me at pmp1004@wildcats.unh.edu or directly on Facebook.

We are excited to welcome you to campus!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
