Break & Summer Housing

School Break Closures

The residence halls will be closed for all students during Winter Intersession and Spring Break. If you need to remain on campus during these closures, stay past the closing time, or return before the halls reopen, please obtain approval from the Office of Residence Life. A fee will apply for these arrangements.

For Thanksgiving and Easter Break, the residence halls remain open with no additional fee for residential students who wish to stay. 

Staying on Campus During Summer

Summer housing is available exclusively for continuing Manhattan University students who are taking intersession courses, participating in University activities, or pursuing internships approved by the Center for Career Development. Please note that summer housing must be prepaid and you must have no financial holds on your account. Current residents will be contacted with further details in mid to late April.
