Mid-Year Move-ins

It takes just two steps to figure out where you're living at Bethel. If you have any questions along the way, contact us.

New students (spring start)

Apply for housing: application opens around November 1. Apply online through MyBethel (click the Housing & Meals link in the Tools & Resources menu).

Unlike the fall process, the mid-year room selection process is done for you by the Residence Life office staff. Preferences from the application are honored if possible based on space availability.

An email will be sent with room information once placement is completed. Your MyHousing Overview page will include your roommate's name and Bethel email. If you would like home information, you can look them up in the Bethel Directory.
