HOUSING SELECTION INFORMATION FOR FALL 2013

New Students

• Students entering Oglethorpe for the first time will be assigned to a residence hall by the Residence Life staff member based on the completed housing application.
• Assignments are made once both the application and enrollment deposit are received.
• Students may request a specific roommate on the housing application, however, all requests must be mutual.
• While we will make every attempt to honor your housing requests to match you with a compatible roommate, assignment preferences and roommate compatibility are not guaranteed.
• Housing assignments will be sent to new students by mid-July.
• To get the process started, you should then APPLY NOW!
