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.

STEP 1: COMPLETE THE APPLICATION & CONTRACT

Park University’s housing application is available through eRezlife. Students may log in with their Park ID email and password. The application will provide the Residence Life staff with your contact information and roommate and living preferences. If you have already applied but would like to change any of your information (hall, roommate, etc.), email reslife@park.edu.

Also in the eRezlife system, students will sign the Housing Contract. Be sure to review the housing contract thoroughly before submitting. All students will be held to the terms and conditions of the contract, once moving in.

Additionally, you may reference a PDF copy of the contract text here.

STEP 2: HOUSING DEPOSIT

The housing deposit of $150 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:

Returning students do not need to pay a deposit. Housing deposits are refundable up to July 1.
