Married On-Campus Housing

Application

Students may apply for TVA up to a year in advance and do not have to be married to apply for TVA. Students are advised to apply at least two semesters ahead of the desired check-in semester to have a higher chance of being invited to live in TVA.

Students admitted to the university may apply to TVA at any time through the Housing Portal. There is a $50 non-refundable application fee due at the time of application. New incoming married students should apply, and then make arrangements to live off-campus before arriving.

How to Apply

1. Sign in to the Housing Portal.
2. Select "Secure Housing."
3. Select "TVA"
4. Select "Waitlist Application."
5. Complete the form and pay the fee.

MAKE SURE YOUR APPLICATION IS COMPLETE!

There are two parts to the TVA Application: the $50 non-refundable application fee and the form. Both must be complete for your application to be complete. Your application completion date is determined by when you complete both the form and payment. Your application will be sorted by that date along with waitlist priorities.

Once your application is complete, you will be in the system. You are not on the waitlist. There is no waitlist until the deadline for that desired check-in semester has passed. See the 'Waitlist' section for more information.

Invitees will begin receiving notification of a pending TVA assignment 30 days before the start of the semester. Housing Operations will communicate with applicants through their BYU–Hawaii email, so checking your email regularly is extremely important.

Please ensure that you are meeting all of the requirements to be eligible to remain a priority on the waitlist.

Maintaining Your Application

Register for Classes

To be considered eligible for your desired semester, you must be registered as a full-time student for that semester. You will not be considered and are not eligible for the waitlist until you are registered.

Update Application

Each application is responsible for keeping their application up to date. It is important that all the information submitted on your application is accurate. Inaccurate or falsified information will result in the denial of an application and postpone acceptance to TVA.

To update an application, select 'Update Application' on the TVA Applicant landing page.

To review an application, select 'View Application' on the TVA Applicant landing page.

Security Deposit

If you are accepted into TVA, a $300 security deposit will be due at the time of invitation. The security deposit must be paid by credit card online during the application process. Please save up for this expense before you are invited.
