Break Housing

The First Year Residence Halls will remain open over fall, winter, and spring breaks. Students who live in Freshman North and South can stay in their rooms during these breaks at no extra cost. Please be aware that policies may change during break periods. Students will be notified of break policies in the weeks leading up to the break.

For students who live in all other residence halls, several weeks prior to each break, housing applications for that break will be placed at each front desk. Break housing is offered to those who need to stay on campus due to work or other extenuating circumstances. For the fall and spring breaks there is no extra charge. For the winter break a daily charge will be billed to your Marshall account.

Break housing residents are housed in Twin Towers West and Twin Towers East. If you are not currently a resident of those buildings, you will need to find a resident of those buildings who will be willing to let you stay in their room. This resident must be identified on your application or you will be placed in an empty room or a study lounge depending upon room availability.

Residence Halls will be staffed with Resident Advisors, a Resident Director, and front desk security during the breaks. Information on dining hall hours and costs will be sent to you or posted prior to the break.

For more information about break housing, please call (304) 696-6766 or email housing@marshall.edu.

The Residence Halls will close for spring break on Sat., March 17th at noon. They will not reopen until Sunday, March 25th at 9am. If you need Spring Break Housing please fill out the application and submit to Terry Anderson in Housing and Residence Life by Tuesday, March 13th at 5:00 p.m.
