Compare homesWhat the housing setup looks like
West Texas A&M University offers on-campus residential living in nine named residence halls: Buff Hall, Centennial Hall, Conner Hall, Cross Hall, Founders Hall, Guenther Hall, Jarrett Hall, Jones Hall, and Shirley Hall. The university describes on-campus housing as a way to stay connected to campus activities, dining, and academic resources.
- Residential Living is the office that handles housing.
- The housing page also points to roommate changes, FAQs, meal plan rates, and living-learning communities.
- For contact, the office is in the southwest corner of Centennial Hall on the east side of campus.
How to apply and what the contract means
You must be admitted to the university before you apply for housing. The housing contract is valid for one academic year, meaning fall and spring, unless you start in the spring semester.
- The contract cannot be canceled mid-year while you are enrolled, whether you are part-time, online-only, or full-time.
- If you need the official process or exceptions, use the university’s housing application and requirements pages.
- This is the key rule to know before committing, because it is not a short-term or flexible month-to-month agreement.
Move-in basics
WTAMU says move-in uses an official process with traffic, directions, and arrival guidance posted on its move-in page. The university says official Move-In Day is August 20, and the early move-in request form opens July 1.
- Arrivals without a timeslot may move in any time between 1 and 10 p.m.
- Move-In Herd help is unavailable after 1 p.m. for those unscheduled arrivals.
- The university warns this information can change before move-in day, so check the page again right before you travel.
