Single suites and rooms in partially-filled suites will be distributed through the room lottery process for rising second-year students.
To participate in the room lottery process, select one person to be your group leader. Your group leader will need to submit a group through MyHousing by the designated deadline below:
| Size of Group | Group Submission Deadline | Lottery Day | Lottery Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 people in a suite (SRV) | Monday, April 3 at noon | Tuesday, April 4 | Starts @ 3PM |
| 5 people in a suite (SRV) | Monday, April 3 at noon | Tuesday, April 4 | Starts @ 3PM |
| 4 people in a suite/apartment (Triangle/STJ) | Thursday, April 6 at noon | Friday, April 7 | Starts @ 3PM |
| 3 people in a suite (SRV) | Thursday, April 6 at noon | Friday, April 7 | Starts @ 3PM |
| 2 people in a suite/apartment (SRV/Triangle/STJ) | Tuesday, April 11 at noon | Wednesday, April 12 | Starts @ 3PM |
After the group submission deadline, the group leader will receive an email notification directing them to the room selection system where they will be able to view the date and time to go online to select the suite or apartment and assign bedrooms. This email will explain the room lottery process as well as information regarding:
- how many groups applied for that particular lottery
- how many suites or apartments are available for that lottery
Only the group leader will have access to the online room selection system. Make sure that person knows what specific bedrooms everyone in the group is interested in. If the group leader is not available at the designated time, they can log on later during the lottery time. Please realize that other groups will choose their rooms before you, and a suite or apartment will not be held for you.
If all suites/apartments/rooms are selected before your group's lottery time, your group will be allowed to participate in another room lottery for a different size group.
To participate in the lottery process, you must complete your individual housing application by Monday, March 20, 2023.
