Important On-Campus Housing Dates

Below are important dates for Housing applications, move-ins, and move-outs. Housing may adjust these dates if necessary, but our priority is to share any adjustments as promptly as possible. Please note that some dates are different for entering and continuing students:

  • Entering Student: A new student who is enrolling at Berklee for the first time that semester

  • Continuing Student: A returning student who is currently or was previously enrolled at Berklee (excluding Summer Programs like Aspire)

For information on other important dates at Berklee, please visit the Academic Calendar, which includes dates for Berklee breaks and holidays. Housing accommodation requests must be submitted separately following the process and deadlines established by Accessibility Resources for Students.
