Applications for the academic year open on the first Monday in February. 

When you apply, you will be able to rank up to five preferences for housing type (including selecting a room type and a community). 

Undergraduate students are eligible to select cluster housing, pod-style housing, dormitory rooms, and select living learning communities (LLC).

Please be advised that we try our best to accommodate room preferences whenever possible, however requests for a particular room type are not guaranteed.

Select living learning communities are open to undergraduate applicants in single dormitory, pod-style housing and Cluster. 

If you are interested in a living learning community you must submit a supplemental application. Applicants will be selected based on the quality of their answers, including examples of:

• experience and genuine interest in the theme
• ability to actively contribute to the theme and their community

Living learning community applications are evaluated by the LLC committee and will be ranked according to the quality of answers to the supplemental question. Room offers to the living leaning communities are based on these rankings. Applicants who are not accepted into a living learning community are still eligible for a room through the standard residence admissions process, as long as they have submitted an application and qualify to live in residence.

We look forward to reading your application and welcoming you to one of our fantastic communities!
