Some halls have a higher rate of returning residents. Your name will automatically be placed on a waiting list for a preference not honored. The waiting list will remain active until move-in day. Approximately three weeks after move-in, students on a waiting list for an Honors Hall or C.H.I.O.C.E. Hall space will be contacted to update their interest in remaining on the list. Most singles are assigned to continuing residents through a lottery system held in the winter quarter.
Demand usually exceeds supply.
Indication of a request for a single room on the Preference Sheet does not guarantee the request will be granted. The limited number of single rooms that become available are offered to students who have filled out a Single Room Authorization. New and incoming students may request a Single Room Authorization form after June 1. This plan, patterned after programs at other campuses, involves a planned overbooking of housing facilities allowing the staff to house as many students as possible. Expanded occupancy living spaces could include, but are not lomited to, converted lounges or other similar public area space.
