Make the most of your Lamar University journey!
Because we want you to start strong, all first-year students who graduate from high school between September and June are required to live at Cardinal Village and have a University Meal Plan during their first Fall and Spring semesters at Lamar University. This on-campus experience helps you build community, stay engaged, and have easy access to academic and campus resources.

The Housing Contract is now open for Fall '26 and Spring '27. Visit lamar.edu/housing to complete your application.
