Residence Life
New Students
Welcome to the Office of Residence Life and Education. We’re glad you’re considering living on campus or are visiting this site as a member of our community. We work hard to provide Park students with a premier living experience.
Resident Life and Education Policies
Engage with The Honors Academy Residential Learning Community.
STEP 1: COMPLETE THE APPLICATION
Park University’s housing application will provide the Residence Life staff with your contact information and living preferences, which will be used to match you with a roommate. If you have a preferred roommate, list that person’s name on the application. If you have already applied but would like to change any of your information (hall, roommate, etc.), email reslife@park.edu.
STEP 2: HOUSING DEPOSIT
The housing deposit will hold your space on the waiting list. The deposit will be refunded when you move off campus as long as all balances are paid upon departure.
The deposit may be paid with any of the following methods:
- login to MyPark and select “Make a Payment” in the Student Account Tools. Be sure to include the words “Housing Deposit” in the comments section before you enter your credit card information to process the payment,
- by calling (816) 584-6800 and selecting Option 4,
- or by mailing a check to:
Office of Residence Life
Park University
8700 NW River Park Drive
Parkville, MO 64152.
Returning students do not need to pay a deposit. Housing deposits are refundable up to July 1.
STEP 3: SIGN THE HOUSING CONTRACT
The final step is to complete the Housing Contract online. Be sure to review the housing contract thoroughly before submitting. All students will be held to the terms and conditions of the contract. Communication regarding housing assignments will happen mid-summer.
An automated confirmation will be sent to you once your contract has been received. Additionally, you may reference a PDF copy of the contract text here.
For any questions, please contact the Office of Residence Life at reslife@park.edu.
