Extra semesters do not get extra credit. Class standing is determined by the Registrar. Class standing for room choosing purposes is determined by records in the Office of the Registrar. It is based on the number of credits a student expects to complete by the close of the 2000 fall semester. Lottery numbers are generated by a computer program which selects random numbers in a specific range and assigns them to individual students.
Selection starts with the lowest number and works to the largest number.
Seniors will have the lowest numbers of any class. All students must have a lottery number to participate in the room selection process. There is no lottery or cohort insurance for, or as a result of, the December lottery. Numbers will be distributed through College Mail usually a couple of days before the lottery. Proxies will receive the information, not the returning student.
