Two-Year Pathway Students

Although living on campus is not required for two-year pathway students, those who are interested in residing on the Malibu campus are welcome to apply in the Housing Portal. Please note that space in on-campus housing will be limited for the upcoming academic year due to the large size of this year’s incoming undergraduate class. As such, we encourage you to visit our off-campus housing resource page to look into potential alternatives.

If you have any questions regarding the roommate grouping process, please contact the Housing Office and we will be happy to help you!
