Housing at the LTCC residence hall and Aspen Apartments is available to full-time students (enrolled in 12 or more credits per term) who are over the age of 18. To reside in the new residence hall, students must also be California residents.

Priority is given to students who receive need-based financial aid, such as a Federal Pell Grant or a California College Promise Grant (formerly known as the Board of Governor's fee waiver).

Applicants should complete either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the CA Dream Act Application (CADAA) as soon as possible to determine eligibility before final housing assignments.

The housing license agreement is in effect for the Fall, Winter, and Spring terms of each school year, with an additional summer license available to enrolled students. The full license agreement is linked in the housing application and should be reviewed carefully.

Incoming residents should also read the Residential Living @ LTCC Handbook, which details policies and procedures designed to promote a positive campus community.

Rates include all utilities: internet, electricity, water, trash, and snow removal.

Overnight parking on campus is limited. Residents may apply for an overnight parking tag, which costs $20 per academic term.

Housing fees for the on-campus residence hall include a mandatory 8-meal-per-week plan.

• Residence hall rooms are furnished with twin XL beds, desks, chairs, chests of drawers, and built-in closets.

At this time, we cannot accommodate minor children in our housing facilities. All residents must be 18 years old and registered as full-time students.

The residence hall is staffed by a full-time Director of Residential Living who resides in the building and is available during office hours and in emergencies.

Each wing is staffed by a Resident Assistant (RA) who lives on site. RAs are fellow students who serve as peer advisors, build community, and respond to resident concerns. An RA is on duty each night.

The residential living staff also includes Desk Assistants who staff the front desk and assist residents and guests.
