Here’s hoping everyone wanting an acceptance gets one on Thursday!
Okay, assuming a person gets the coveted acceptance, what is the next step vis-a-is housing? Does a deposit have to be made to hold a place and ensure a good housing priority number? Do any other decisions need to be made such as what kind of housing/preferred residence?
if I remember correctly, making the deposit ensures you a priority number
Housing will open in mid February. This is when you receive your contract number after paying your housing deposit (I think like $250). Once you’ve mad the deposit, the portal will reopen I believe in March and allow you to select roommates and your housing choices, but those can be changed up until May 1 and it won’t affect your priority. But you need to log on ASAP in February to get a good priority. My cousin two years ago tried to log on right when it opened at 9am and ended up with a number of 827, which isn’t bad but is also lower than expected.
