Download a housing application here. You will also need to submit a $260-security deposit, so you can either mail a check along with your application, or bring the application in person to pay with cash. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we currently cannot accept credit card payments.
We offer two types of housing contracts. The majority of our students have a full year contract (12 months).
Move in typically happens the weekend prior to classes starting (August). Contact the main office at (402) 554-6600 for questions about times, directions, etc… All residents will be mailed detailed information in the summer.
No. We ask that you adhere to the dates as outlined in your move-in information packet, which will be mailed in the summer. If you have special needs, please contact University Village at (402) 554-8555 to make arrangements. Sometimes, we can assist with early arrivals; however, we do apply an early arrival fee.
All room assignments and roommate information will be mailed mid July.
You need to indicate your roommate requests when you fill out the UNO housing application. All roommate requests must match or we will be unable to grant your request. Once rooms have been assigned you will not be able to make roommate request changes.
* Please keep in mind that while we try to honor your roommate and room requests, we cannot guarantee all requests.
Tips to increase the chances of getting the roommates you requested.
12-month housing contract – August 2011-July 2012: $509.00 per month (includes all utilities)*
Payment due dates vary according to the type of housing payment plan you selected. Please review your contract for details.
You can mail a check to Att.: Denise - 6506 University Drive South, Omaha, NE 68182, or drop off a payment via cash or check at the University Village clubhouse front desk. Credit card payments can also be done at our office or online. We cannot take credit card payments over the phone.
Billing statements are NOT mailed out. Please keep a copy of your contract agreement. We will send the student reminder e-mails, but it’s ultimately your responsibility to submit your payments by their due date.
Housing contracts are individual, so you will not be held responsible for your roommates’ rents – you will only owe your portion of the rent.
Funds can be added to the account in person at the MavCard Services Office in the second floor of the Milo Bail Student Center during regular business hours (Monday – Friday 8:00AM to 5:00PM). Accepted forms of payment are cash, check, Master Card, Visa, Discover and American Express. Cash only can be added to the account at one of our four MavCard Centers on campus:
We also have a website for making deposits, checking history, etc. Our website is called MavCard On-line and can be accessed at: http://mavcard.unomaha.edu/ (This website is also printed on the back of all MavCards)

Attending college and deciding to live in a student community often means living with a roommate. Roommates may have diverse experiences and may come from different cultures. Our housing staff is trained at helping roommates work through concerns to negotiate resolutions to problems. We will try to relocate you to a different apartment if one is available AFTER you have truly tried to work out your differences with your current roommates. Unfortunately, space is not always available to offer relocation. You cannot be released from your contract with us for not liking your roommates.
We do not have daily scheduled tours, but you can view pictures, virtual tour, and more on our website UV Gallery.
Contact our office if you want to schedule a tour - 554-6600.
