University Housing

We are pleased to offer you an air conditioned option for summer housing. Students chose to live on campus because it is hassle-free. You don’t have to arrange for cable TV, high-speed internet, utilities, garbage collection, or lawn mowing – all are included in the price!

Red Cedar Hall, Stout’s new suite-style building, offers an “apartment” feeling. Opened in the Fall of 2005, Red Cedar offers 4 person suites that have single bedrooms, a living room, kitchenette, and private bathroom facilities within the suite. The kitchenettes offer a full sized refrigerator, a microwave, sink, and cabinets. Rooms are equipped with a bed, dresser, desk, bookcase, cable TV connection, and a high-speed internet connection. Full kitchens, including a stove, cook-top, refrigerator, sink, pizza ovens, etc. are located on every floor. A compact laundry room can also be found on each floor. The lower level of the building has a game/TV room and some small meeting rooms. Red Cedar Hall is served by two elevators and is completely air conditioned.

The weekly cost is $60 or the entire summer is $780.00. If you are staying less 3 nights the nightly rates is $22.00. To reserve a room, you can complete an on-line reservation on our summer web site.

 

Identification Cards

A Stout OneCard (student identification card) is issued to each student at no charge and signifies status as an active member of the UW-Stout community. It also serves as an official student identification card.

To obtain a Stout OneCard, the student must present a valid government issued photo ID card when they report to 160 Price Commons to have a photo taken.  The Stout OneCard will be sent directly to the student’s home address in a UW-Stout branded business size envelope. Once the card is received, it must be activated. Students can easily activate their Stout OneCard online.

During activation, preferences are selected for receiving financial refunds from the university.  In addition, students are offered a free MasterCard debit/checking account (not a credit card, there must be funds available for purchases) called the “OneAccount.”  The OneAccount may serve as a primary bank account allowing students to use their campus ID card to complete transactions anytime, anywhere a MasterCard is accepted.

Funds can be deposited into a Flexline account, which is an on-campus debit account that can be used to purchase meals, school supplies, clothing, tickets, postage, photo copies, resume printing, health services, parking permits, beverages and snacks. These funds remain active and usable while a student is actively enrolled. Flexline funds are for use on-campus only and cannot be used anywhere outside of the university.

Office hours are 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.  More information about the Stout OneCard, the OneAccount or the Flexline account, call 715/232-2887 (choose option 2).

Hometown News Verification

Your billing will contain verification of your “hometown” for purposes of newspaper publicity. This will affect notice of honors, chancellor’s award and graduation sent to your home newspaper. It is your responsibility to report any changes you want in this record. If you need to change your designated hometown, do so online on the Address Update form.

Textbooks: Instructional Resources Service

Textbooks and other required resources for your classes are available for loan at this service. Instructional Resources Service (IRS) is located on the west side, second floor, of the Library Learning Center. Required resources may be checked out and are due the last day of the class. Resources are also available for purchase.
