The University of Kentucky proudly offers Summer Housing to students needing to stay in Lexington between the spring and fall semesters. Our summer residents might include students participating in an internship or taking summer courses. Even students who simply prefer to remain in Lexington for the summer can apply for Summer Housing, whether they are taking summer courses or not.
Summer Housing Details
Any UK or BCTC student enrolled in either the Spring, Summer or Fall 2023 semesters is eligible to apply for Summer Housing, as long as they are in good academic or financial standing.
Summer residents will live in Woodland Glen 4 (WG4) and may purchase Flex Dollars to use in dining facilities rather than purchase an individual dining plan for the summer months. While students may still choose a roommate or roommate groups, they will not participate in formal Room Selection. UK Campus Housing will manually assign students to rooms within the residence hall.
The Summer 2023 Housing Application will officially open on March 1.
The 2023 Summer Housing Contract can be reviewed here.
If you have any questions about Summer Housing, please contact UK Campus Housing at ukhousing@uky.edu or 859-257-1866.
