Housing Process Overview
Important:
The RMS/Mercury Housing Portal login page has recently been updated. The new link is: https://nsuhousing.nova.edu/page/login
Please reach out to our office if you are having any issues accessing our Housing Portal.
How to Apply for Housing
To apply for main campus housing, follow these steps.
- Submit your housing application online. If this is your first time applying, you will also need to pay a $500 housing deposit. Once we have processed your application, we will contact you regarding the next steps.
- Submit your Immunization records via the Housing Portal.
- All students living on campus are required to carry adequate health insurance coverage and will automatically be enrolled in the NSU Student Health Insurance plan. Students’ accounts will be charged upon class registration for each semester. If you are insured under another insurance plan, you must opt out of the NSU Student Health Insurance Plan by the given waiver deadline. For more information, visit the NSU Student Insurance page.
Please note, unfortunately, due to the unprecedented high demand for University Housing, we have reached full capacity. Therefore, please note that if you submit a 2022-2023 housing contract now, you will automatically be placed on a waitlist, and your assignment will be based on the next available space released.
