The MCAD housing application for the 2025/26 academic year is now available online. Log into myMCAD and go to Student Life>> Forms to get started.
HOUSING REQUIREMENT: FIRST AND SECOND YEAR
All first and second year students are required to live on campus. Students who see the housing application upon logging into myMCAD will be freshman or sophomore standing as of the end of spring 2025 semester. Academic class standing is based on credits completed, not the number of semesters attended. To be junior standing, at least 60 credits must be completed by the end of spring semester to be exempt from required housing.
If you are unsure of your standing, please review your degree audit for completed credits, and add your spring credits to find your anticipated class standing at the end of spring. Your degree progress can be found on myMCAD under the Academic Advising tab.
Questions about the housing requirement should be directed to student_affairs@mcad.edu
