Upon Arrival at UWSP
The driver who meets you at Central Wisconsin Airport will assist you
with checking-in to your residence hall.
When you arrive at the reception desk of your residence hall:
- You will be asked to complete a housing card;
- You will be given a room key or combination number, and an
outside door key;
- You will be assigned to a double room, that is, you may have a
roommate;
- You will receive an orientation packet. Please be sure to locate
and review your orientation schedule.
Additional information:
- The residence halls do not provide bed linens (sheets, blanket,
pillow, or towels). The ESL Program offers new, low-cost "bed kits"
for all new students.
- The room assigned to you upon arrival may or may not be your
permanent room.
- Be sure to check your room thoroughly. Report to the residence
hall staff any defects in the room and furnishings; otherwise you
may have to pay for pre-existing damages.
- You are expected to clean your temporary room before checking
into your permanent room.
Important notice regarding Orientation and Housing Contracts:
The required ESL Program orientation typically begins before the UWSP
Office of Residential Living’s regular academic year contract periods.
As a result, new students may be charged a nominal weekly fee (currently
$95) for pre-contract housing. These charges will be added to your
university account and are due when billed
