Requirements:
To be eligible to campus change from a regional campus to the Storrs campus, a student must fulfill specific programmatic requirements for their intended major. Most students must complete 54 credits before they can campus change to Storrs. Exceptions to the 54 credit requirement are determined, again, by a student’s programmatic requirements.* A student seeking an early campus change needs to speak to a representative from the regional campus Office of Student Services to determine whether or not they qualify for a campus change before earning 54 credits.
Eligible students can campus change to Storrs for either the Fall or Spring semesters. The campus change process is not automatic. There are specific deadlines a student must meet to successfully campus change. In addition, each regional campus holds an informational meeting for students eligible to campus change.
*Students participating in the “Spring to Storrs” program fall under different guidelines. Students participating in the regional campus housing option fall under the regular campus change criteria

Storrs On Campus Housing:
As a regional campus student, it is important to remember that you are a current UConn student (and not a transfer student), and you will be treated as such. If you call the Residential Life office, please identify yourself as a Campus Change Student.
All students who are interested in living on campus must apply for housing in order to be assigned a space in a residence hall. Regional campus students switching to the Storrs campus are guaranteed housing. Students must meet the stated deadlines and be cognizant of the new University Residency Requirement.
The staff in Housing Services can answer all of your questions about the housing application process.
Important Housing Residency Information:
Students who will be 19 or younger as of the start of the semester will be required to live on-campus as a part of the Residency Requirement. More information about the residency requirement can be found at this website.

The regional campus change meetings are held each semester. The Fall meetings are held in October; the Spring meetings in February
