UNIVERSITY APARTMENT HOUSING APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
UAH Username and Password: Once you click on the link to go to the UAH Application you will have to enter the username and password. You will also need your PID number (Cxxxxxxxxx) in order to complete the application.
- New Student: If you do not have a username and password, you can obtain one from the Housing Liaison of your school. Typically, this information is sent along with the acceptance package materials, along with your PID number.
- Continuing Student: If you are a continuing student not already in housing, you can obtain a username and password from either your Housing Liaison or from the UAH office. Your PID number can be found by logging into SSOL. If you are already in housing, please do not complete a new housing application unless specifically instructed to do so.
Making changes to Your Application: If you need to alter your housing application, do not re-submit the application online. E-mail any changes to uah@columbia.edu.
International House: If you apply for housing in International House (I-House) you must ALSO complete the I-House application. The I-House application is available online. Download, complete, and send it to the UAH office. Housing offered by UAH in I-House is dormitory style housing for single students only. Please do not submit a second UAH application online, even if you are applying for both UAH and International House accommodations. See this section of our site for more information.
Incomplete or Inaccurate Applications: Incomplete or inaccurate applications cannot be forwarded to your school for approval. We will contact you for correction or completion, which may cause delays in the review process.
Confirmation: An acknowledgment window will appear if the document has been properly transmitted. You will also receive E-mail confirmation. Please follow the instructions in the E-mail message in order to monitor the progress on your housing application. The E-mail will contain your assigned applicant ID number and PIN number, as well as instructions on how to monitor the status of your housing application online.
Disability Housing Accommodations: For students whose disabilities substantially limit their ability to live in Columbia's traditional housing units, accommodations are provided. Students must follow the University's Disability Housing Accommodations Procedures & Guidelines and submit the required form for consideration of their requests. Students must be otherwise be eligible for University housing in order to be eligible for disability housing accommodations.
Disability Housing Accommodations Deadlines: June 1st for Fall semester; November 1st for Spring semester. While applications submitted after these dates will be accepted and considered, Columbia cannot guarantee that it will be able to meet late applicants' accommodation needs, including any needs that develop during the semester.
