Application Disclaimer
Applications are processed on a first come, first served basis with priority given to current resident students. While we try our best to accommodate room preferences, we cannot guarantee student’s first or second choice of hall and/or room type. If a student receives their second choice, they will not automatically be placed on a wait list for their first choice unless otherwise requested.
We strongly encourage students to read over our residence information below before applying for residence.
