Charleston Bridge

Find your home away from home.

Our 2024-2025 Charleston Bridge students should check their email for an important message from the Office of Admissions dated May 14, 2024. The College of Charleston was able to offer Bridge students admission into the class of 2028 as a provisional student. Read below for what this means for housing.

Housing Requirement Update for 2024-2025


As a Bridge student, you were required to live in campus housing. That is not a requirement for a provisional student. But we’d still love to have you!

  • If you still want to live on campus and your housing application is complete, you’re all set. You can review more info on our page for first-year students. Your next steps will be reviewing the roommate info below and then room selection, which takes place in June.
  • If you no longer wish to live on campus, you will need to cancel your housing application. Just click the Cancel Application button on the homepage of the MyHousing/Dining portal. The cancellation fee will not apply if you cancel by May 20.
  • If you decide to no longer live on campus, you may still sign up for a meal plan once you cancel your housing application.

Bridge Roommates


As a Bridge student, you were required to live with other Bridge students. That is not a requirement for provisional students.

  • If you’re in a roommate group and don’t want to make any changes to it, you’re all set. Be on the lookout for room-selection information, which we’ll send to your College of Charleston email.
  • If you’d like to switch things up, you have until May 20 to make changes. You can now search for roommates outside of the Bridge program. Watch our video to get tips on finding the best roommate for you (and how to change groups).
