<p>should i send in my deposit now for a better chance of getting into new rez? or does that not affect my chances? i know its a lottery, but i heard if your name comes up they basically give you your top choice if there is still room. so to me, that would mean its advantageous to enroll early. is this true?</p>
<p>There is a specific date when the lottery occurs, and that day all the names registered are assigned a random number and then the respective residence spots are filled.</p>
<p>I don’t think the time you do it matters, as long as you are in the list the day of the lottery.</p>
