International students who wish to apply to MacEwan Residence must submit a paper application. Please refer to the International area (above) to access to available applications.
If you plan on attending MacEwan University and you would like to submit an application to MacEwan Residence the following application periods are currently available:
2012: CURRENT YEAR ~ NEW APPLICANTS*
2012/13: NEXT YEAR ~ NEW APPLICANTS*
*NEW APPLICANTS: Be advised that MacEwan Residence does offer three different types of suites for you to choose from (bachelor, 2-bedroom, 4-bedroom). However, given the high demand for bachelor and 4-bedroom suites, priority is given to returning residents for these units. While it is not impossible for new residents to get assigned a bachelor or 4 bedroom unit, it is unlikely as there are few of these suites available and they are in high demand. Any suites remaining after returning residents have been assigned, will be allocated to new residents based on the date of their application and any special accommodations requested. We encourage you to apply as early as possible to increase your chances of getting a bachelor or 4-bedroom unit.
** CURRENT RESIDENTS: Guaranteed Housing is now OPEN.
Applications will only be accepted for periods that are open. As such, applicants need to ensure they are applying for the correct time frame. Residence Services will not be able to transfer an application from one period to another; a new application, with application fee, will be required.
