Housing & Residence Life

For Residents

As an undergraduate, you can focus on what inspires you. We help students find their path and align their goals to prepare them for success. From day one, students are supported through enriched learning inside and outside of the classroom. The well-rounded education you’ll receive will prepare you for boundless opportunity.

Laundry Tips

  • Empty Pockets: We are having a big issue with bobby pins getting stuck in the pumps and breaking the washers.
  • Soap Use: Only a small amount. Follow manufacturer's instructions. If using a front-load washer, ONLY USE H-E (high-efficiency) type detergent. Look for the H-E logo on the bottle. All brands make this type.
  • Stains: Pretreat stains. If a stain does not come out in the wash, don't dry it! Drying can set stains. Try pre-treating and washing again.
  • Clothing Labels: Each item of clothing has instructions listed that will tell you how to wash/dry properly. Read them.
  • Sorting: Separate lights and darks unless you want all of your clothes to be the same color!
  • Lint Filter: Make sure you clean out the dryer lint filter every time.
  • 1 wash load = 1 dry load: Do not try and dry more than 1 wash load as it will not dry!
  • Please report any service issues so we can fix them promptly!

All of our machines are connected to the Wash Alert app. This app allows you to:

  • Track your laundry
  • Receive a text message when your loud is done in a machine

Living in a Community

Living in an Augusta University residence hall or apartment gives you the opportunity to get involved in a community and enjoy many exciting experiences.

The Housing and Residence Life staff is here to assist you, but we recommend that you take the lead by participating, listening to others, sharing your experiences and knowledge, adhering to the community's expectations, and being a role model for others.

Closing Information

Undergraduate residence halls close at the end of Fall and Spring semesters. At the end of Fall semester, residence halls close for Winter Break and residents are required to leave while personal belongings are locked and secured in their assigned suites.

During closing meetings, RA's will provide residents with information regarding leaving the room and personal belongings during Winter Break if the resident plans on returning to the residence hall for Spring semester. Information regarding move out will also be provided if the resident does not plan on returning in the Spring.

Fall Closing

Mandatory closing meetings will be held by RA's to discuss items such as vacating residence halls, leaving belongings in your assigned space, submitting Extended Stay requests, and when residence halls reopen for the Spring semester. If a resident does not plan on returning for the Spring semester, a move-out is required and students will be required to submit a Housing Cancellation Form which can be found on the Contract Cancellation page. Students not returning for the Spring semester can contact their RA or the Residence Life Coordinator to schedule a move-out.

Spring Closing

As students prepare for the Summer, mandatory closing meetings will be held prior to Spring Break to discuss items such as scheduling a move-out appointment, move-out deadline, and Extended Stay requests. If residents are planning on taking Summer classes, a summer housing application will be required and an assignment will be made. A resident taking Summer classes may be required to move out for the duration of their Summer break until their classes start.
