New for the 2010 - 2011 Housing Selection Process
  • Two new residential facilities will be open for Fall 2010: New South 40 House (Phase 2) and Thomas Eliot House B. South 40 House Phase 2 will house approximately 94 additional upperclass residents in multiple person suites with single bedrooms. Thomas Eliot House B will house approximately 146 upperclass students in a similar suite-style arrangement.
    Housing Selection Requirements



    Most of the Housing Selection process is online this year. In order to participate in the Housing Selection process for the 2010-2011 academic year, all students must submit the following:

    1. Room and Board Application available on student's WebSTAC account (contract with dates, terms and conditions, payment information).
    2. $450 Advance Payment which will be billed immediately to student account. If student receives any financial assistance through Student Financial Services, this payment will not be billed to the student account.
    3. Housing Petition available on student's WebSTAC account (tells Residential Life where students want to live and with whom).
    Gender Neutral Housing



    Residential Life aims to treat students as adults and encourages them to make well-thought-out decisions. We are happy to offer upper-class students a housing option where the assignments are not based on gender. Gender Neutral assignments will be made in the following buildings and will be made in conjunction with the Round 1 and Round 2 processes:

    • The Village (four-person, single bedroom, two bathroom suites)
    • Greenway Place Apartments (two and three person apartments with single bedrooms)

    During Round 2, assignments will be made in lottery average order (along with petitions that are single-sex). If you are not financially independent, we expect you to discuss your housing preference with those responsible for payment. Please note that this option requires a paper Housing Petition. Do not use the online Housing Petition on WebSTAC for Gender Neutral petitions.

    If your group receives a Gender Neutral assignment, the suite/apartment must be filled for the entire academic year. Groups with members who intend to participate in the Spring Study Abroad Program must be prepared to replace members after the fall semester. If there is an unexpected cancellation, you will be offered the opportunity to secure a replacement, but Residential Life reserves the right to assign another applicant to the space or to reassign the remaining residents to same-sex accommodations.

    Gender Neutral Petition

    To apply:

    • Apartment Homesteading - Please check the appropriate box on the Apartment Homestead paper petition.
    • Village BLOC -  Groups will submit the Gender Neutral Petition (the same paper petition that is used during Round 2) to the Village Office during the BLOC Interview.
    • Round 2 - the Gender Neutral Petition paper petition for download is available here.
