What is the process for assigning campus housing?
Returning students are assigned a priority number based upon class standing (i.e. current seniors are given the highest priority and current freshmen are given the lowest priority). Returning students choose their own room in April based upon their priority number.
What about new freshmen & transfer students?
Following the continuing student sign-up period, remaining spaces are assigned to new students (first-time freshmen and transfers) first-come, first-served based upon the date a completed housing application is received by the Housing Office. The Admissions deposit must be made before a Housing application can be completed.
