YPSILANTI, Mich. Eastern Michigan University is guaranteeing a single room on campus starting this fall for any enrolled student who wants one. The Ypsilanti school announced its EMU Single Room Guarantee in response to physical distancing and other safety concerns due to the coronavirus pandemic. Single rooms typically cost approximately $2,500 a year more than a shared, double room, Eastern Michigan said. The credit provides an annual savings of $1,700 over the typical single room rate. We have heard from many students and parents about this issue, Eastern Michigan President James Smith said.
