This housing costs $35 per day. Spaces are limited so please contact Housing and Residence Education at 614-292-8266 or housing@osu.edu as it is a first come first serve basis for the limited number of spaces and your university account will be billed when you make the reservation. We will begin to take reservations for break housing starting February 29, 2024.
For those of you planning to stay in town over the break, the hours of dining facilities can be found online.
Please remember that Spring Break is a great time to start taking items home that you don't need. This will allow an easier move-out experience at the end of the semester.
