Transfer Students - SEO Optimized
Welcome to DU Housing!
Transferring to a new college presents its own unique experiences and challenges. Our Housing & Residential Education (HRE) department continuously works to make the transfer experience simple, improve housing options for transfer students, and provide the necessary resources for your seamless transition to living on campus.
Established as a growth-centered environment, DU’s transfer housing creates a space for you to explore your independence while participating in our vibrant student community and forging meaningful connections. We look forward to welcoming you to your DU home.
Live-On Commitment
DU requires all transfer students to live on campus. Designed to enrich your student experience, the two-year live-on commitment between undergraduate students and DU helps you connect with classmates and promotes your individual growth and independence.
Housing Options for Transfer Students
Transfer Living Community
Dedicated to transfer students, DU’s Transfer Living Community (TLC) connects students with one another, creating a community built on shared experiences and personal enrichment.
Located at the center of campus, the Transfer House, home to TLC, residents have easy access to academic buildings, the Anderson Academic Commons, and the Ritchie Center for Sports and Wellness.
Centennial Towers
Students transferring to DU can opt to live in Centennial Towers, a pair of high-rises located at the north end of campus. Towers is comprised of suites, including two large bedrooms and a shared bathroom and kitchen, providing students with plenty of space while still enjoying the benefits of communal living.
Student Accommodations
To ensure all students have comfortable housing that suits their unique needs, DU encourages students with documented medical, mental health, or disability health conditions to request housing accommodations or modifications. Prior to submitting a request, students must document their condition via the Disabilities Services Program.
