QWhat is RAP?

   AThe Room Assignment Process (RAP) is the procedure where current on-campus residents may choose an on-campus room for the next academic year.

RAP Housing Deposit:
-A NON-REFUNDABLE $300 Housing deposit must be made to the Office of Housing and Residence Life.
-The non-refundable deposit indicates your commitment to reside on campus for the full 2008-2009 academic year.
-The deposit is applied toward your spring semester rent for 2009.
-In order to secure a room for the 2008-2009 academic year you must complete an on-line application and submit a non-refundable deposit by 4:00pm Friday, March 7, 2008.
-Once submitted, the deposit is non-refundable regardless of whether you attend RAP or decide to select a room.

Applications:
-Applications will become available on-line on Wednesday, February 13, 2008.
-In order to secure a room for the 2008-2009 academic year you must complete an on-line application and submit a non-refundable deposit by 4:00pm Friday, March 9, 2008.
-Due to the overwhelming demand for on-campus accommodations we will not accept late applications for RAP.

Room Selection:
-RAP applicants will select their room assignment for the 2008-2009 academic year after Spring Break in late March/early April 2008.
-Detailed information about this process will be available in mid-February.

All students who submit their application and non-refundable deposit by the March 7, 2008 deadline are guaranteed housing if they select a space during the Room Assignment Process. Students who do not select a space during RAP will forfeit their deposit and will need to submit a General Waitlist Application if they are interested in living on campus.
