Would Someone Please explain how housing is assigned?

We are from out of state and honestly UF was a stretch so we didn’t pay attention to housing details when my DD applied Now she has been accepted and the housing situation is a blur. We are OOS…can someone explain? Finally got out 25$ deposit in on Feb 12. What is next??

You should receive an email with more details. Another email with the housing contracts goes out Feb.20. My son was accepted for summer, so the dates may be different.

Thanks. I understand there is a part of Broward just for OOS…will it fill fast/?. will the delay in getting in the deposit make it less likely she will get in there?

I thought I read if apply for housing after Dec 1 don’t get a time to book specific hall, maybe rank order and get assigned. Summer B or Fall?

She was admitted for Fall term. Don’t they send out some kind of survey to make sure you end up with a compatible roommate.

For the Out of Stater Gator LLC:

How to Join:

Shortly after the official notification is sent to students admitted to the University of Florida, the housing Assignments Office will send housing contracts to students that have an active housing application on file. Students who complete the housing contract process (sign the contract and pay the prepayment) will be able to indicate hall/room preferences. During that time you will be asked if you are interested in living in an LLC and if so, which one. Simply indicate Out of Stater Gators at Broward Hall as your choice. Students will then be preassigned to Broward Hall, as space allows based on their application date.
