Housing selection is the processes by which you may select a room and roommates for the next academic year. Housing placement happens next and is where you're placed in your housing assignment. You have the opportunity to participate in either of these processes, and priority placement is given based on your class status.
To live in on-campus housing, you must participate in either the housing selection process or the housing placement process. If you do not participate in either process, you will be placed on a wait list and will be assigned to campus housing if and when it becomes available.
The housing selection process begins in January. Priority placement is given based on your group's total completed academic credits.
The Housing Placement process takes place after Housing Selection and is a final opportunity for current students to request to live on campus during the next academic year. During housing placement you may indicate a building or a roommate preference, but are subject to availability. Residence Life will do everything they can to try to assign you to your preference, but cannot guarantee spaces will be available. If you participate in this process you will be assigned housing over the summer and will be notified via your Mount email account. Notification will be sent as housing placement is determined, and may come as late as a few days before the fall semester move-in.
