Welcome Home!
Your journey to campus is officially underway!
Can you believe it? You'll be a McDaniel College Student in just a few months. We can't wait for you to get here and walk alongside you as you begin your journey on the Hill. Before you can officially move in, there are some important steps you need to take.
Welcome Home tasks will guide you through the process of moving to McDaniel. As you work through these tasks, pay careful attention to the deadlines.
Our Housing and Roommate Matching Application is the first step in identifying your roommate preferences. You’ll have the opportunity to indicate questions which are the most important to you and to list other information that will help us match you with a roommate. You will also be able to review and select the meal plan of your choice. Note that you must be a deposited student and have also completed the set up of your McDaniel student account a minimum of 48 hours prior to completing the Housing and Roommate Matching Application.
Special Housing Requests: On occasion, students have medical or other concerns that require special room assignments. If you are requesting special housing accommodations, download the special housing request form. Forms should be submitted to the Office of Residence Life. The form is also available by visiting https://mcdaniel.erezlife.com under resources.
Housing Overview
Living on campus is an essential part of our first year experience, and over 95% of first-year students participate in on-campus residence life. The First Year residential communities are designed to provide support through the transition to college, and students interact regularly with professional staff as they get settled into their new home.
Dining Options
Select your meal plan and learn more about where you'll eat on campus.
Here at McDaniel, our four dining facilities offer unique menus and dining experiences to accommodate your needs. Varying food selections not only give you a wide variety to choose from on a daily basis, but also provide a diverse assortment for the more adventurous palate.
Parking Information
Parking permits cost $500 per year are issued based on the results of a lottery. In prior years, around 60 - 70% of first-year students who entered the lottery were awarded a parking permit. Commuter students are guaranteed on-campus parking.
Special parking requests such as medical, family and employment needs must be accompanied by appropriate documentation.
