Email to second year students without accommodation:

We’ll send you an email to let you know about the Student Dormitory Configuration Plan for Fall 2020. As you know from the previous email, we will be placing all students in single and double room configurations for the fall semester. Additionally, the delay in building Singleton, Hitch, and Maida homes has changed the look of our fall configuration. After reviewing the housing survey results and analyzing the rooms on campus for the coming semester, we will start building second year housing next week.

A detailed schedule and important information about this process will be published on the Housing Services website no later than Thursday 25 June 2020. The process will start June 29, 2020 and will last until July 10, 2020. On the way there it will be so There are three informational events that you can view live or in your spare time. The process will be quick. So check your e-mails daily and make sure that our e-mail address is a contact in your address book. Each student in this process must sign a housing contract before they can join a group for group accommodation. Please contact your roommates en route to involve all those involved in the process.

The residential configuration for this process consists of apartments / suites for groups of 1, 2, 3 or 4 (never more than two people per bedroom) and traditional apartments for groups of 1 or 2. When you sign your rental agreement, you will be asked to indicate the desired group size. This is not a guarantee that your group will be able to choose within that size, but it does help us determine the most suitable living configuration and accommodate the maximum number of groups as possible.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during this challenging time. Now mark your calendars and join the first live session on the Second Year Housing Process on Monday, June 29, 2020 at 1:00 p.m. EST. A link will be emailed to you later this week.

Email to students with contracts for single and double rooms at Singleton, Hitch & Maida Houses

We’ll send you an email to let you know about the Student Dormitory Configuration Plan for Fall 2020. As you know from our previous email, we will be placing all students in single and double room configurations for the fall semester. Additionally, the delay in building Singleton, Hitch, and Maida homes has changed the look of our fall configuration. After reviewing the housing survey results and analyzing the spaces on campus for the coming semester, we’ll email you to let you know that we’ve selected students, the Singleton, Hitch, and Maida homes To be assigned to Trembley Park Apartments.

The costs for these spaces are invoiced at a category III housing price that corresponds to that of Singleton, Hitch & Maida. In addition, priority will be given to moving into Singleton, Hitch, and Maida homes when those buildings open.

To be as fair and equitable as possible, single and double room assignments will be made in your current group of 1 to 4 people based on the selection timestamp of everyone in your current suite. These jobs will be placed over the next few days and you will be notified when they become available through Housing and Dining Self-Service.

* Only for those in doubles who requested an individual in the survey: if you do not receive an individual during this process, as requested in the Fall Apartment Survey, you will be offered an individual in a similar style of living, or you can opt to compete in the rising process of the second year.

We are pleased to be able to offer living space this autumn and look forward to the opening in August.
