Are you ready to officially be part of the incoming class? All we ask is that you complete and submit a simple form to move on to your next step to becoming part of the Titan Family. The online form can be found at uwo.sh/hold-my-spot.

Congratulations Titan, your journey starts here!

When we receive your completed ‘Hold Your Spot’ form mentioned in Step 1, a Titan email account will be created for you. Login information for this account will be emailed to you within five business days.

You should check your UW Oshkosh email account often, minimally 1 to 2 times per week. We also highly encourage that you regularly check your spam folder. Sometimes emails are incorrectly filtered there, and we don’t want you to miss something!

Multifactor Authentication, or MFA, is an additional security measure we use at UW Oshkosh to protect your email account. All students must set-up their MFA right after receiving their login credentials. Instructions can be found online at uwo.sh/student-mfa.

The ‘Hold Your Spot’ form will also grant you access to the online portal to apply for housing and dining plans. Instructions needed to access the housing portal will be emailed to you after holding your spot.

Within the housing portal, you will submit a $75 housing deposit. After a $25 administrative fee, $50 will be applied to your Spring 2024 housing cost. The deposit is refundable with written notification to the Department of Residence Life no later than June 15, 2023 for Fall 2023 students.

Click here to begin your housing application. Move-in day for first-year students is early September. Watch your Titan email for specific dates.

Live On-Campus Requirement

UW Oshkosh enforces the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents Housing Policy for students in their first two years (four semesters). If you live within the 45-mile commuter range and are commuting from your parent or legal guardian’s permanent home, you must request and complete a commuter card from the Department of Residence Life. That card can be found here.
