Informasi mengenai akomodasi

The University of Maryland provides good residential facilities to its students. There are about 8,245 beds in 36 residence halls and a 625-bed Leonardtown apartment community in the University. Most students live in double rooms and have one roommate. About 12 per cent of all beds are in triple or quad rooms, where students have two or three roommates. Single rooms (no roommate) are assigned solely to returning residence hall students through a seniority system. There is no access to single rooms for new-to-housing students, including for reasons of a medical condition or disability. New-to-housing students may request assignments in traditional "dormitory-style" residence halls (most without air conditioning) or in furnished, carpeted and air-conditioned apartments or suites. Housing demand from graduate students usually exceeds the supply of available beds, so students are requested to ask for housing early, preferably immediately upon receiving formal notice of their admission. All requests are initially placed on a waiting list. If space becomes available, graduate students are moved off the waiting list and assigned a room and roommate. Priority for residence hall housing is given to full-time undergraduate students. The Department of Dining Services offers plans to suit every appetite and every schedule. Classic plans accommodate those living in on-campus residence halls, optional plans cater to students living in nearby apartments and houses, and add-on plans meet the needs of students with large appetites or a desire for even greater convenience and flexibility. Only students who live in traditional and suite-style residence halls where no cooking is permitted are required to have dining plans.
