Every summer, the Department of Residential Education and Housing offers eligible students the opportunity to live on campus. Summer Housing is available ONLY for undergraduate TCNJ students enrolled in summer classes, TCNJ students working full-time for a college department, or TCNJ students participating in a summer program approved by Residential Education and Housing.
Maymester housing will take place in Phelps Hall while Session A and B will be in Hausdoerffer Hall.
Applications for all three summer sessions are now available on My Housing.
Please click the links below to download our Frequently Asked Questions, time line of important dates, and dining options as it relates to living on campus during the summer:
Electric Shutdown
Each May, the college’s Facilities office performs an annual high voltage shutdown. This requires shutting down the main transformers on campus that will take down power to the entire campus. This will affect both apartment buildings on Saturday, May 18 from 6 AM-6 PM and will mean no power, air conditioning, or hot water being available. This annual maintenance is required to ensure that the campus electric grid is safe and reliable. We are providing this information ahead of time so students can plan to make alternative arrangements for this day should they choose.
Hall Office Hours
Both the Phelps and Hausdoerffer hall offices will be open daily for their respective summer sessions from 9-11 Am and 6-8 PM, unless otherwise noted in the Important Dates document.
Cost of Summer Housing 2013
You will be billed for the entire session you applied for after you have selected a room during Online Room Selection. If you vacate your assignment prior to the end of the session and properly check out with the hall office, you will receive a refund for the weeks of summer housing in that session that you did not use. Please check with Student Accounts regarding due dates of your summer bills.
Students will be charged the full weekly rate for summer housing for each week, or portion thereof, that they are in residence.
