Room Selection
Room Selection March 25- April 18, 2024
To participate in the Room Selection process, you need to:
1.) Be a current Tech student living on campus for the Spring 2024 semester.
2.) Complete and submit an online housing application/license agreement by April 5th, 2024* for priority placement.
3.) Complete a Group Roster to indicate who you and where your group wants to live.
(*Applications submitted before April 5th for the 202024-2025 housing application/license agreement will be issued a Room Selection Lottery Number and a housing preference form. You MUST submit this form to select your room.)
There are several factors affecting 2024-2025 room options and availability for returning residents in this Selection Process:
- Limited Occupancy: We will be filling all double occupancy rooms as doubles not singles (this includes Baca Hall). Singles are ONLY available with an Access Services Waiver for room accommodations. For more information regarding this process please visit our Access Services Site.
- Previous Placements/Squatting Rights: A student is never guaranteed the same room from one academic year to another. You are aple to seklct the same room if it is avaiable at your selection time
- Roommate v. Hall Priority: Student roommate requests/preferences will be prioritized OVER residence hall placement if you do not selct your room.
- Room Selection Priorities –
- First-Year Residence Halls: Incoming, first-year students will have priority placement in the following halls: Torres, West (1st floor), Driscoll (1st floor), Presidents and (1st and 2nd floors).
- Upper-Class Residence Halls: Returning, upper-class students will have priority placement in the following halls: South, Baca, Presidents (basement floor), and Alta (Alta is for 3rd and 4th year students only).
- The Queer Affinity Space (formerly gender-inclusive/gender-neutral housing) will be available on the Second Floor of West Hall, not the entire building. Gender-inclusive housing is not intended for romantic couples. Rather, it provides options for a variety of students: students who feel they would be more compatible with a roommate of a different sex or gender, students in the process of discovering their gender identity, or students who do not want sex or gender to be a primary factor in choosing a roommate. The Queer & Ally Affinity Space intends to support a welcoming & inclusive campus climate regardless of sexual orientation and gender identity, thus, all restrooms will be designated as “all gender”. *Please note that a Gender Inclusive Housing Agreement is required for all individuals to live in this community.
- Mountain Springs Apartments and Desert Willow Apartments: Are now controlled exclusively by Auxiliary Services. Priority for these spaces will be given to graduate students, domestic partners/married couples with/without families, and international students. For more information on pricing, availability, and applications visit Apartment Communities or email to apt-housing@soongshinkid.com.
