Information for Applying

 

Thank you for showing interest in applying for Student Housing here at Collin College! The Student Housing facility is located at the Spring Creek Campus in Plano. Still, it provides housing to any full-time student enrolled at any Collin College campus. We offer housing options based on one bed per student so everyone has privacy in their bedroom space. All floor plan requests are subject to availability and not guaranteed since we have limited availability in each one. Our units come fully furnished with all the essential furniture needed in a college dorm.
