Room Assignment Guidelines
Space in Mary Markley Hall is available on a first-come-first-served basis
for each of the half terms, Spring and Summer, and for the full Spring/Summer
Term. Northwood III apartments are only available with a May-to-May option
- assignments began in January for students currently living in University
Housing. Students currently enrolled for Winter Term have the priority
for choice of room or apartment type with applications beginning March
19, 2009 at 8am. available in room 1011 Student Activities Building. Current
Winter Term students need to be registered for at least one of the half-terms,
Spring or Summer, to be eligible to live in their building the entire
May through August occupancy period. Students with May-to-May

but must be registered for both Fall and Winter Terms 2009-2010.
It is important to submit an application as early as possible for the best consideration of available space.
Although we always do our best to provide students with their preferred accommodations, University Housing is unable to guarantee that we will meet every student's first choice preferences.
