APPLICATIONS TO LIVE IN RESIDENCE FOR THE 2018-19 ACADEMIC YEAR ARE NOW BEING ACCEPTED.
Information for Incoming First-Year Students and Bachelor of Journalism (BJ) One-Year Students
Residence is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. Incoming first-year students should apply and pay the necessary residence fees as early as possible in order to secure a room. If you wait until the May 15, 2018 Admissions Deposit deadline to apply to residence and pay residence fees you will only receive a residence placement if space is available at that time. Please note that your residence application will not be active until you have received an offer of Admission to the University from the Registrar's Office. Notification of room assignments will be made beginning in May 2018.
Information for Returning Students
King’s students who are returning to studies in the 2018-19 academic year are guaranteed a single room in residence if they apply by March 31, 2018 and pay the $50.00 application fee and the $400.00 confirmation deposit.
Information for Non-King’s Students
If you are a non-King's or a non-Dalhousie student, please contact the Residence Office (residence@ukings.ca or 1.902.422.1271, ext. 215) and request a BANNER student ID number. Please provide us with your full name, home address and date of birth. This ID number is required in order for you to proceed with your application.
Residence Fees and Withdrawal Policy
The Student agrees to remain in residence for the duration of the academic year, as set out in the 2017-2018 Academic Calendar. Any Student who wishes to leave residence during the academic year will be held responsible for his/her residence fees for the full academic year, or until a replacement acceptable to the University, is found. Early withdrawal may be granted in the event that the Student graduates, undertakes a co-op placement, internship or practicum required for academic purposes outside the metro area, or is unable to continue in residence for other reasons acceptable to the University. Students who wish to live in residence for only one term must indicate this intention when completing the residence application. First preference for rooms will be given to those students intending to stay for both Fall and Winter terms. Withdrawal granted on medical grounds must be substantiated by medical documentation within one (1) calendar month after the date of withdrawal. An additional administrative fee of $175.00 will be levied in the case of early withdrawal from an assigned room during the academic year.

Notification about the status of all residence applications and room placements is only made using the Dalhousie email system. Visit my.dal.ca and click on the 'New User' link to get started.

All efforts will be made to place students within their preferred lifestyle. The College, however, retains the right to alter room assignments.
Single rooms are not usually allocated to first year students except on documented medical grounds (see area indicated as: MEDICAL)
Angels Roost is a small, comfortable, co-ed residence environment in which rooms have been set aside specifically to meet the living and learning needs of upper-year students and students in the one-year Bachelor of Journalism programme. This unique residence is comprised of single rooms and is situated in the heart of campus, literally steps away from the Kings School of Journalism.
Note: Every effort will be made to place you in Angels Roost. However, if we are unable to do so, we will attempt to assign you a single room in another residence. Should you have a preference for another residence building, please indicate below.
All efforts will be made to place returning/upper-year students in single rooms, in their preferred building, room, and lifestyle choice.
The College retains the right to alter room assignments at any time prior to occupancy. Returning students must be in good academic standing and eligible to return to university.
