Housing Waitlist Acceptance?

<p>I missed the deadline for the housing deposit and so I had to go on the wait list. Currently, my spot is around 170 and I was wondering what my chances of actually getting housing as a freshman at SBU are. Is there any chance that I could get housing for the fall semester? And if not is there a better or chance I could get housing in January? Thanks!</p>

<p>Contact the Bursar’s Office: E-mail Mara Green, University Bursar, at <a href=“mailto:Mara.Green@stonybrook.edu”>Mara.Green@stonybrook.edu</a> and request that the general payment just submitted be applied as your campus housing deposit.

<p>hi, thanks for your quick response! since i am already on the waitlist does making the $200 deposit before i am notified of an open spot via email increase my chances or is waiting until i am notified of an open space and then paying the $200 deposit just the same as submitting it now?</p>
