Are you an international student new to UC?

You are on your way to enjoying a new lifestyle and environment in Cincinnati, Ohio. Your arrival is determined by a number of factors: visa, air travel, college orientation, International Student Services Office orientation, just to name a few examples.

The department of Housing & Food Services is setting aside safe space in a residence hall to help you if you need a temporary place to stay after you arrive in Cincinnati. This is useful when you are looking for an off-campus apartment or waiting for your fall room to become available. See Siddall Hall here.

The cost is $25.00 per person/per night for a multiple occupancy room. Your room will have a full set of furniture for each guest, up to 4 people to a large room. Restrooms and showers are centrally located along the corridor of the floor.  
Each floor is gender specific. The hall is secured 24 hours a day.

Because international flight arrivals vary, it is possible to check in anytime at the Siddall Hall front desk. However, check out must occur by noon the day you leave. Failure to do so will result in another room night to your bill.

Please make your reservation at least one week prior to your arrival. You will need a credit card to complete the reservation.
