The Group Housing Program administered by Michigan State University is an approval process for Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) at Michigan State. Under the Program, qualifying student organizations (“Organization”) may apply to have certain affiliated facilities (“Facility”) approved to  house second-year students.  This Program provides an exemption to the University’s two-year on-campus living requirement. The Group Housing Program is an optional program for eligible organizations.

The Handbook below outlines the program administration, requirements, and processes for the Group Housing Program.
