UK 2021-2022 Housing Rates Approved by UK Board
LEXINGTON, Ky. (Dec. 18, 2020) — University of Kentucky housing and dining rates will have a modest increase for the 2021-2022 academic year.
In its Dec. 15 meeting, the UK Board of Trustees approved the rate increase for university-constructed housing, which includes residence halls built before UK partnered with private company Greystar to construct and manage the bulk of UK’s residential beds. Rates for the Greystar-built and managed housing will increase by the same amount.
Regular undergraduate housing rates reflect a 3% increase, while break housing and early move-in rates will increase by 3.6-3.8%. Graduate and apartment housing rates will increase by 3%, and the daily rate increase will be 2.3-3%.
All students living in undergraduate residence halls are required to purchase a dining plan with the exception of University Flats residence halls. The dining rates will also increase on an average of 3.1%.
