Why Live at Flagler?
Why Live at Flagler?
There are many great reasons to stay on campus as a returning student.
- Your people, right outside your door. The friends, RAs, and campus events that shaped your first year are a hallway away.
- Close to class and support. Academic resources, dining, and campus services are a short walk, not a commute.
- Move-in ready. Every room comes furnished, and rooms in FEC Towers and Sebastian Hall have private baths.
- No apartment hunt. No landlord to manage and no search in a tight rental market.
Juniors and Seniors: You've met your residency requirement, so staying is your choice. Queen beds in doubles and King beds in singles, is ready when you are.

Right after you pick your room, you'll also get to select your own meal plan in eRezLife. If you don't choose, you're placed on the Unlimited plan.

After you submit your application, click Roommate Groups in eRezLife, name your group, and add friends by Flagler email. Everyone in the group must have completed their application and be the same gender and class year. Each person confirms by selecting My Choice. You'll see a green checkmark when you're done, so you know you're good to go.
If you're still looking, you can also create a RoomeeZ profile so other students can find you.
On selection day, only one person selects the room and assigns beds. Everyone chooses their own meal plan.
Your student completes the housing application in eRezLife. Only they can do that step.
Families can pay the $150 housing application fee online.
For questions about payment and costs, you can reach out to Student Accounts at studentaccounts@flagler.edu or call them at 904-819-6230.
Residency Requirement Exemptions
Residency Requirement Exemptions
Students who meet one or more of the exemption criteria for the Fall Term on or before August 1, or for the Spring Term on or before January 1, may submit a Residency Exemption and Contract Cancellation Request Form through eRezLife.
The Housing Contract Exemption Committee reviews all requests and supporting documentation before making a determination. All approved residency exemptions are subject to the applicable cancellation fee schedule.
Students who have not satisfied the residency requirement and do not currently meet any exemption criteria will not be granted an exemption. These students must complete a housing application and reside on campus in accordance with College policy.
Students who are required to live on campus under the two-year residency requirement and fail to complete a housing application will be assigned campus housing and assessed the associated housing and meal plan charges for each semester of the applicable academic year.
Housing Contract Cancellations
Housing Contract Cancellations
The housing contract is binding for the full academic year. Students experiencing extenuating circumstances beyond their control may appeal for a contract cancellation by completing the Residency Exemption and Contract Cancellation Request Form through eRezLife and providing appropriate supporting documentation.
Students must receive approval from the Committee before signing a lease or making any off-campus housing arrangements. Do not sign a lease or make other commitments until you have received official approval. Signing a lease does not guarantee that your appeal will be approved.
The Housing Contract Exemption Committee will review the appeal and determine whether a cancellation will be approved. All approved cancellations remain subject to the deadlines and fees outlined in the Cancellation Fee Schedule.
