Housing and Financial Aid

Undergraduate Student Housing

In general, IIT scholarships and federal financial aid that exceed tuition can be used to help defray living expenses for IIT housing. Below are details outlining the financial aid policies as they relate to IIT’s housing options.

McCormick Student Village (MSV)

IIT’s room-only or room-and-board scholarship can be used as a credit towards living in MSV. The value of the room scholarship will not exceed the charge for a double room. The value of the room and board scholarship will not exceed the charge for a double room with a 19-meal plan. Additionally, if a meal plan with a lesser value is chosen, the subsidy will be limited to the actual cost. Overall, IIT scholarships and grants can never exceed tuition and the rate of a double room with a 19-meal plan.

State Street Village (SSV)

IIT scholarships, the board portion of the IIT housing scholarship, and federal financial aid can be used to help defray living expenses in SSV up to the rate of a standard double room in MSV with a 19-meal plan. In general, IIT scholarships and grants can never exceed tuition and the rate of a double room with a 19-meal plan in MSV. If a student with an IIT room-only scholarship lives in SSV, the scholarship will be rescinded. If a student with an IIT room-and-board scholarship lives in SSV, the scholarship will be replaced with a fixed-value subsidy limited to the value of the 19-meal plan. Additionally, if a meal plan with a lesser value is chosen, the subsidy will be limited to the actual cost.

Greek Housing

Students with a room-only or room-and-board scholarship who choose to live in on-campus Greek housing will have their housing scholarship replaced with a fixed-value subsidy. The subsidy cannot exceed Greek charges. In general IIT’s fixed-value subsidy is less than the Greek charges. Overall, IIT scholarships and grants can never exceed tuition and IIT’s fixed-value subsidy.
