Re-Contracting for 2019-2020 Housing

This year returning students may re-contract for 2019-20 housing beginning November 1, 2018. Students who currently live in housing will soon need to decide if they are living on-campus for the 2019-20 academic year.

Re-contracting early has its benefits!

  • Students who return will have the option to choose their own roommates.
  • Students may return to the same residence hall room or apartment (room retention)
  • Students can select their own housing! At UW-Green Bay, we offer shared bedroom apartments, private bedroom apartments, and shared residence hall rooms.
  • The advance deposit for current residents is rolled over for the next year.

The re-contracting process opens on Thursday, November 1 and ends on Wednesday, March 20 at 11:59 p.m. Then on March 26 – March 29, students who have not already retained a room will be able to select their apartment or residence hall room and roommates.

Regardless of accommodations type, students enjoy the following amenities: private bathrooms, furnished rooms and apartments, high-speed internet access including Wi-Fi, high definition cable television service, and laundry facilities in each building.

We hope that your student has had a positive living experience on campus, and chooses to return to campus housing for another year. Many of our students remain on campus through graduation due to the variety of living options, and the many opportunities to grow and learn in a residential setting.

If your student has questions about the re-contracting process, please have them visit the Office of Residence Life, call (920) 465-2040, or email housing@uwgb.edu.

  1. I have some concerns about re-contracting for housing. This past year (2017-18)it was my understanding that there were a record number of freshman enrolled at UWGB which created a shortage of rooms in the residence halls (dorms). Single freshman students were place in vacant rooms of the private room apartments. They were able to retain their rooms (for 2018-19) plus were also able to “pull in’ other students of their choice filling up the private room apartments before true seniors were able to select their rooms. This is in no means fair to the upper classmen who waited for their “turn” to get into the private bedroom apartments. I would hope that Residence Life would check into this matter and come up with a better resolution that allowing freshmen to fill up the most coveted living quarters. This also allows them to not be required to have a meal plan. Is that wise? It was difficult for my daughter to give honest answers to housing questions as she gave summer tours to prospective students. Again, I am asking that the room retention procedures be looked at and make housing choices fair for all students.
