Summer Residence

Summer Residence bookings are managed by two separate departments, depending on the client:

• SMC Residence is responsible for all student residence bookings.
• Conference Services is responsible for all external bookings, including school groups, language camps, and conferences.

If you are an external group looking to book space for the summer, please contact our Conference Services Office by emailing usmc.bookings@utoronto.ca.

Students during the Summer

The SMC Residence is delighted to accommodate students through the summer months with the flexibility to suit your needs. To be eligible for summer housing, you must be willing to stay for either:

• Half summer term only
  • First Term: May 5 to June 24, 2024
  • Second Term: July 1 to August 17, 2024
• Full summer term: May 5 to August 17, 2024

Unfortunately, we are not able to accommodate short-term or custom-length stays in summer residence. We do not rent rooms on a nightly or weekly basis, only for the half term or the full term.

Summer Residence Spaces

Summer residents are housed in either Sorbara Hall or the Historic Houses. Students who are only staying for the half term (May & June) will be accommodated in Sorbara Hall while students who are staying for the full term (May – August) will be assigned to the Historic Houses.

Summer Residence Rates for 2024:

• Standard Single – Rooms used as singles during the academic year
• Deluxe Single – Rooms used as doubles during the academic year
• *Double Room – Students must notify the Dean’s Office via email if they want a double room, and indicate their requested roommate. The Dean’s Office does not facilitate roommate matching for the summer term.

Please note: Meal plans are not mandatory during the summer term sessions. The rates listed above do not include meal plans or flex dollars. Priority for Deluxe Single and Standard Double rooms will be given to residents staying for the full term.
