Housing Contracts 2016

So, I’m an incoming freshman at Michigan and I was just wondering if people had started receiving housing contracts yet? I submitted my application before the deadline, and I’m not in any learning communities or anything. I know it’ll be any time between now and August but I just want to know so badly and was wondering if anyone has anything (experience, etc.) that they can share? Thanks!

Anyone?

My twin sister found out today. She is on The Hill… still waiting to hear about where I am though!

Son received his SQ contract today.

Daughter received barbour/newberry contract today

Got mine yesterday for Mosher Jordan. It seems like a lot of people did, maybe you did too?

Should I assume I am on North Campus if I haven’t heard back yet then?

My son didn’t hear yet. Better not north campus. We will be mad if the case.

I still haven’t, should I be worried?

No, my son and most of his friends are still waiting. Only one heard in early June. His friend chose Quad with 3 other friends and got assigned to South Quad. So jealous.

That’s what I call a Squad.

But yeah, don’t worry about not having heard yet. Among students I’ve spoken to it’s more common to have heard back by now than to have not, but I’ve also heard of a fairly substantial amount who haven’t heard back… including me!

@YaBoyTony have you heard from anyone thats gotten north campus? or have only the hill and central residents heard so far?

@rbandrews I can confirm that North contracts have gone out to many freshmen already. It seems to me that when an individual hears back has little to do with where they’re placed.

@YaBoyTony hmmm… I got a housing packet that was addressed from Couzens Hall last week, but it didn’t say that I was in Couzens. Just a bunch of random general housing info, and I think a catalog of some kind. Any thoughts on that?

I think everyone gets that @rbandrews . I just got that today, and I was put in Markley last week.

@whizkid98 so then did your packet say that it was from markley hall? Like the address label part?

@rbandrews nope, still Couzens.

A LOT of people who are living in MLCs should have their contracts by now. I got mine around this time last year. However, people who weren’t in MLCs got their contracts this around this time, too. But there were also tons of people who didn’t get contracts until some of the very last days in August. They release them in batches, and there’s no real rhyme or reason to the releases. Don’t fret - as a freshman you are guaranteed housing, even if you have to wait a while for it. You’ll have a contract released to you before move-in. In hind-sight, it played zero role in planning for packing because nearly all of the dorms at Michigan are the same set-up (singles, doubles, or triples with community bathrooms). Try not to stress about it and you’ll have a contract soon!

My son got the housing contract. Markley. :frowning: I guess at least it’s not north campus.

What were you hoping to get, if Markley earns a frowning face?
