Thank you for choosing to submit an online application. The link below will take you to the application page.

Application Process

On-line application is free and implies no obligation. There is only a commitment after the Housing Agreement is signed by both parties.

Housing spaces are offered based on the applicant's move-in date. Priority is given to those applicants who need housing first. For example, those who need housing on July 15 will be placed before those who need housing on August 1. We cannot book anyone into an apartment more than two months in advance.

In your application, you will indicate the date you would like to move in to your apartment. Housing Services will contact you six to eight weeks in advance of this date. Initial contact is usually by phone but may be by e-mail if you reside outside the United States. When we contact you, we will be able to tell you exactly what is available for your move in date. Tours of actual apartments may not be available due to current tenants living in them.

If you do not hear from Housing Services six weeks prior to your move in date, feel free to contact the appropriate Housing Services office.

Mission Bay Housing: 415-514-4550
Parnassus Housing: 415-476-2231

After you have selected a space, we will email your contract. You will have 7 days to review and return it to us. A non-refundable reservation deposit, equal to 1/2 month's rent, is due with the submission of your contract. This guarantees an assignment. When you move-in, this deposit is immediately credited toward your rent.
