Dorm Lottery Application Page
  • Returning students only
  • Results available May 1

**For incoming Freshmen and new/transfer students, there will be a separate lottery. The lottery application will be available in the Housing packet information.**


Students who are not successful in the lottery may be eligible for a permit through the Need Based Application (pdf).

Need based permits are intended for students who have an off-campus job, medical need, student teaching, etc. If an off-campus situation qualifies, the application process and documentation must be submitted to the Parking and Transportation Office. All requests will be evaluated and permits will be assigned according to the need and until the supply is exhausted.

The University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire is a self-contained unit with classrooms, libraries, recreational areas, food services, etc., all within walking distance. It is an environment where most individuals do not need transportation. Consequently, we recommend that students do not bring vehicles, unless off-campus employment dictates a need.
Excellence. Our Measure. Our Motto. Our Goal.
