When is move-in for the Winter 2023 term?

After the holiday break, our residences open on Saturday, January 7th, 2023. This is the earliest date that Winter residence students will be able to move in.

Wondering what would happen if you changed your mind about living in residence?

Students are encouraged to await the publishing of their class schedules to determine if residence fits their needs for the Winter 2023 term, prior to cancelling their residence application.

Should you wish to cancel your residence application, please review our Application Cancellation Guide for step-by-step instructions on how to cancel your residence application.

What if I decide to defer to the 2023-24 Academic Year?

If you defer to the next academic year, please cancel your application using the guide above. Students who defer from one academic year to the next must reapply when the next year's application opens. The release date for the 2023-24 residence application has not yet been determined.

By paying the $500 deposit you acknowledge the following refund schedule.

If you cancel or decline our offer by November 30, 2022, at 4:00pm, you will receive a partial deposit refund of $250.

If you cancel or decline our offer after November 30, 2022, at 4:00pm, you will forfeit your $500 deposit.

If you choose to withdraw from residence on or after Move-In Day, you will be bound by the withdrawal processes stated in our Residence Agreement. 

Should students wish to depart residence once they have arrived, we encourage them to reach out to Student Housing by email at residence@trentu.ca for further information on the withdrawal process or reference the withdrawal process outlined in the Residence Agreement that will be available upon allocation of their residence room in late November.


In order to apply if you deferred your Fall 2022 application:

To apply, your next steps are:

  • Open a “Winter 2023” application (either Peterborough or Durham)
  • Once you get to “Step 2: Application Fee” DO NOT PAY
  • Email residence@trentu.ca so we can apply your application fee and deposit to your new application.
    • The deposit fee will be waived only if you had asked Student Housing to hold your deposit to the winter term or it has not been used or refunded at this time.
