Break Housing

Break housing is limited to students who have an academic or unavoidable reason to stay on campus. These reasons include (but are not limited to):

  • On-campus housing is the primary residence
  • Is an international student
  • Safe, living and dining arrangements cannot be made elsewhere
  • Has an in-person academic requirement
  • Has limited access to technology

Many services (including transportation, meal and mail services) are very limited during break.

Summer Housing

Living at UB for the summer lets you avoid the hassles of off-campus sub-leases and long-term commitments.
