Registration

Newly admitted undergraduate students to USC should not need to register on our portal.  Their registration information will automatically be uploaded from the USC Admission Office.

New graduate students will need to register on our site and create a USC Housing account before they can complete an application  When registering you will be asked to provide us with basic personal data, such as your full name, 10 digit USC ID number, birth date, gender, mailing address, phone number and e-mail address.

Portal Login

To submit your application, log in using your USC email address and then create a password. Once you are logged in, you can complete a housing application, create and edit your profile, search for roommates, and find out about your housing assignment.

  • Undergraduate students will be able to login to our portal after they have been admitted.
  • Graduate students will be able to log in once they have registered on the portal and created a USC Housing account.
