On Campus Housing

 # BedsLowestHighest

Costs for residence ranges from $9,000 to $14,500+ plus meal plan for the academic year. These prices are subject to change for the 2027-2028 academic year.

We do not guarantee residence for first-year students. When offering a space in residence, TMU gives priority to first-year students traveling the furthest distance away from our campus. In other words, TMU prioritizes residence applications by year of study and by distance from campus.

You can complete a residence application form once you have an active Offer of Admission to TMU. The first round of residence offers are made in mid-June. Offers continue to be made throughout the summer and into the academic year until the waitlist is exhausted.

Off Campus Housing

The Off-Campus Housing Office helps TMU students to navigate the housing and rental market in Toronto. They have resources and tools to help you with your search from start to finish.

Incoming Students

First-year students are welcomed to TMU each year through our Orientation events. This mix of academic and co-curricular activities is designed to help you find your unique TMU community. While getting to know your way around campus and learning more about your program, you'll also connect with other students and find out about the resources available to support your success.
