Applications to live in residence for the 2013-14 Academic Year are now being accepted.

TEMPORARY RESIDENCE GUARANTEE!
Submit your Residence application and send us your Residence application fee ($50) and deposit ($400) by May 3, 2013, and your room is GUARANTEED. Instructions for paying your Residence fees are available at the end of the Residence application process or by visiting www.ukings.ca/fees-how.

INFORMATION FOR INCOMING FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS
After May 3, 2013, Residence is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Incoming first-year students who are concerned about residence placement should apply and pay the necessary residence fees as early as possible in order to secure a room. If you wait until the May 15, 2013 Admissions Deposit deadline to apply to residence and pay your Residence Deposit, you will only receive a residence placement if space is available at that time.

How will I receive notice about the status of my application?
Remember to set up your Dalhousie Net ID and email and check it frequently! Notification about the status of all residence applications and room placements is only made using the Dalhousie email system. Visit my.dal.ca and click on the New Users button to get started. We cannot guarantee that residence notifications will be sent to any other email address you provide to us.

INFORMATION FOR NON-KINGS, NSCAD STUDENTS
If you are a non-Kings or a non-Dalhousie student, please contact the residence office (residence@ukings.ca or 1.902.422.1271, ext. 215) and request a BANNER student ID number. Please provide us with your full name, home address and date of birth. This ID number is required in order for you to proceed with your application. Assignments for non-Kings and NSCAD students will be made after May 15, 2013.

RESIDENCE FEES AND WITHDRAWAL POLICY
The University does not offer single-term accommodation. Applications for rooms in residence are accepted on the understanding that the student will remain in residence throughout the academic year. Any student who wishes to leave residence during the academic year will be held responsible for his or her residence fees for the full academic year, or until a replacement, acceptable to the College, is found. It is the sole responsibility of the withdrawing student to find his or her replacement and to notify the Residence Office of any desire to leave residence.

Withdrawal granted on medical grounds must be substantiated by medical documentation within one calendar month after the date of withdrawal. An additional administrative fee of $175.00 will be levied in the case of early withdrawal from an assigned room. Students evicted from residence will forfeit all residence fees.

Please select the category that best fits you:


	First Year Student A student who has successfully completed high school and has not previously attended a post-secondary institution and who is under the age of 21. If you are 21 years of age or older, please contact the Residence office (902.422.1271, ext. 215 or residence@ukings.ca) for further information prior to completing this application.

	Returning Student A student who is resuming university studies at the University of King's College, following completion of previous academic work at King's.

	Transfer Student A student who has been awarded credit towards a Dalhousie/King's degree for academic work completed at a previous university/equivalent institution of higher learning OR a student who was previously registered at the University of King's College, transferred elsewhere to complete academic work, and is now returning to the University of King's College.

	BJ-1 Year Student A student who has completed an undergraduate degree at the University of King's College or another institution and who has received admission to the Bachelor of Journalism (1-year) programme.

	Non-King's Student A student who will be registering at another post-secondary institution/College in September other than the University of King's College (i.e., Dalhousie University, Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, etc.), and who would like to live at King's.

Residence Lifestyle

All efforts will be made to place students within their preferred lifestyle. The College, however, retains the right to alter room assignments.

Single rooms are not usually allocated to first year students except on documented medical grounds (see area indicated as: MEDICAL)

If a single room becomes available, I would like to be considered for it. Single room rates will apply.

Angels Roost is a small, comfortable, co-ed residence environment in which rooms have been set aside specifically to meet the living and learning needs of upper-year students and students in the one-year Bachelor of Journalism programme. This unique residence is comprised of single rooms and is situated in the heart of campus, literally steps away from the Kings School of Journalism.

Note: Every effort will be made to place you in Angels Roost. However, if we are unable to do so, we will attempt to assign you a single room in another residence. Should you have a preference for another residence building, please indicate below.

All efforts will be made to place returning/upper-year students in single rooms, in their preferred building, room, and lifestyle choice.

The College retains the right to alter room assignments at any time prior to occupancy. Returning students must be in good academic standing and eligible to return to university.

Select preferred building/room:
