Silliman University tells bona fide applicants for school year 2025 to 2026 to request a pencil reservation from the Student Housing and Residence Division with a complete name, course and year, preferred dormitory and room, home address, parents or guardians names, and contact numbers. The applicant must accept the dormitory manual and send the application and agreement, the pre-admission questionnaire, the resident commitment, two recent 2 by 2 identification pictures, a notarized dormitory application and agreement, and a medical certificate issued within two weeks before the interview. Follow-up and the in-person interview with a parent or guardian run from 19 May 2025 to 15 June 2025 on weekdays, from 8 am to 12 noon or from 2 pm to 5 pm. After board and lodging is paid at the business and finance office, the receipt is presented for a dormitory assignment slip. Under the 2026 to 2027 payment policy, a new applicant also pays a processing fee of 200 pesos and a surety deposit of 1000 pesos on top of a 25 percent downpayment. Regular dormitories include fixed board except Davao Cottage, Pulido Hall, and Woodward Apartment, and the cooperative halls are described as having no air-conditioning and shared bathrooms.

A reader at the National Library of the Philippines needs an NLP client stub or PVC identification to use the collections. Any valid identification is shown to the guard at the ground-floor entrance, then the reader registers online, has a picture taken, and taps the stub or card at the barcode scanner before the second-floor reading area. Food and drinks stay out, collections are for room use only, service is first come first served, and at most three titles may be borrowed at the same time. Rare books, serials, and manuscripts published in 1945 or earlier are requested by letter, with feedback within two days, a digital link within two days when a copy exists, or feedback within six days when no digital copy is available. Off-site access to e-books, e-journals, and audiobooks is limited to Philippine residents with an approved e-portal account and is described as available all day and all night. The children's library is only for ages fifteen and under, and a child of ten or under must stay with a guardian who is at least eighteen, with library identification required for both.
