Housing rates are subject to approval by the CSU Board of Trustees. Housing rates on the following pages are outlined based on the CSU Guarantee Cohorts which represent when first year degree-seeking undergraduates and eligible transfer students started at Cleveland State University.

Students who wish to stay during Winter Break will pay an additional charge to reflect the Winter Break period as outlined in the rates below. Students residing in The Edge and The Langston residential communities do not have to leave during the Winter Break period as long as they register when break registration opens.
