Housing Selection
Every spring, returning students who have submitted a housing deposit for the ensuing academic year are entered into a lottery to determine their priority in selecting housing. Priority is assigned within classes, with seniors receiving the lowest (best) numbers, and second-semester freshmen the highest. This means the "worst" senior number is always better than the best junior number, et cetera. Entering freshmen are allocated housing based on an online housing questionnaire.
