New students and returning UNLV students not currently residing on campus, please follow these steps to apply (returning residents, visit our page about room selection).

1. The link below will open the login page for your ACE account. Depending on your computer’s security settings, you may receive a warning about the site certificate. The certificate should be accepted to proceed with the application.
2. If you wish to request a specific roommate, please add the request in the housing portal. Your requested roommate will receive the request and accept on their end to match you as roommates. If you do not have a roommate you will have the opportunity to find one during our roommate matching.
3. Please answer the roommate-matching questions fully and honestly. These questions must be answered even if you’ve requested a single room or specific roommate. Parents helping to complete the application should discuss these answers with the student before submitting the application.
4. List your living environment preferences by choosing first, second, and third options in the spaces provided. Every effort will be made to honor your assignment requests, but preferences cannot be guaranteed.
5. Select your preferred residential dining plan option.
6. Review your application to be sure you’ve completed all of the required fields and correctly indicated your preferences. Incomplete contracts will not be processed and could affect your assignment preferences.
7. Carefully review the terms and conditions. You will be asked to provide your binding electronic signature to the Residence and Dining Hall Contract when you complete your housing application. An electronic copy of the contract will be emailed via DocuSign for you to review and sign. Students are held accountable for this contract. Please be sure to check your email for your confirmation.
8. Activate your Rebelmail email account; this is the method we will use to communicate with you.
