Receipt of pre-payment reserves a space for you in our system. However, if you would like a particular type of apartment or have a roommate request, be sure to send your Housing Application at the same time. Your application gives the housing coordinators a clear sense of your preferences. Assignments are processed and notifications are mailed two to four weeks prior to the beginning of the quarter.
Every effort is made to honor roommate and accommodation-type requests.
However, Northeastern reserves the right to assign students on the basis of available space. If you are a graduate assistant or teaching assistant, or have received a Northeastern fellowship, please include a copy of your notification letter with your application. This will help us identify and place you if your program requires you to be on campus prior to opening day of the quarter.
