Cost of Housing and How to Apply

Housing is very affordable at CMCC, and is a great way to get a traditional college experience. The cost of housing depends the dorm or apartments you live in, and may depend on what program you’re in, as some students only live on-campus for half a semester dependent on their program.

Students accepted and registered for full-time coursework will be sent the housing application. Applying for housing is one of a few steps after you’ve been accepted to CMCC, so check out the “Once You’re Accepted” page!

Residence Hall Options

The College provides four housing options in a comfortable and safe living environment. To help you succeed academically, we offer a “quiet floor” living option, study groups, tutoring and other support services. Internet access is also provided.

Rancourt Hall

The newest residence hall on campus offers double-occupancy rooms with individual heat and air conditioning controls. Four handicap-accessible rooms are available, and the first-floor lounge has a big screen TV. The “Treetops” conference room on the fourth floor, available for study groups and student events, offers a panoramic view of the campus and Lake Auburn. Rancourt Hall provides each student with their own bed, bureau, desk, and closet.

Fortin Hall

The recently renovated Fortin Hall is the hub of residence life activity.  The game room and lounge on the ground floor includes ping pong and pool tables, foosball and air hockey, arcade games, TVs, sofas and a surround-sound system. Fortin Hall provides each student with their own bed, bureau, desk, and closet.

The Apartments

We offer apartment-style living in our two apartment buildings located right next to the residence halls. Each apartment has four bedrooms with one main living area and a shared bathroom. One of the apartments is handicap accessible for one or two people. The Apartments provide each student with their own bed, bureau, desk, and closet.

Mustang Hall

Mustang Hall is our off-campus residence hall and is located only 1.5 miles from campus. Each room is equipped with two beds, private bathroom, microwave, and flat screen TV. One hundred and twenty-six students live in this completely renovated, updated hall and will be managed by a full-time resident hall director and four residence assists. Ongoing activities will be offered, and a bus service is available directly to the college.

 

Roommate Selection

Students can choose their own roommate. Let us know if there is another student that you would like to share a room with. And don’t worry if you don’t know anyone coming to CMCC, you’re not alone! We will select a roommate for you who matches the preferences you indicated on your housing application.
