Earlham College Housing Selection Process 2004-2005
Earlham College


Housing Selection Process

Intro.




There are changes to the Housing Selection Process this year. These changes are designed to improve two areas of the process: 1) To continue to reduce the negative impact the system had on sophomores, and 2) to increase available housing options. There are also implementation changes focused on making the process more transparent and easier to understand. The changes for this year’s lottery were based on ideas from students, faculty and alums and current web-lottery survey data that students completed during the fall semester 2003. Thank you for your input!

The goal of the Housing Selection Process is to help students select housing for the next academic year. This goal is extremely important as it affects the quality of your academic and personal living experience for 10 months! Since there are changes, please take the time to get a clear understanding of the process and available options. Read the handbook and don’t be shy about asking questions of the Residence Life staff. There will be information sessions held throughout the process; be aware of these dates and attend the sessions so that you fully understand your options. Your housing assignment for the coming academic year is worth the investment in reading, asking questions and attending an informational session!

All students at Earlham College need to participate in the Housing Selection Process. In order to assess available space on campus, we need accurate information from all students. Even if you are eligible for or want an exemption from campus housing, we need you to communicate with the Office of Residence Life. As you navigate through the process, look out for each other. Please share information with us if there is a problem or someone needs support.

If you have any questions about the process, feel free to call the Office of Residence Life at x1317 or check out the Residence Life web page which includes Housing Selection info: http://legacy.earlham.edu/~sas/reslife/hs.html
