Lottery Number Notification
Housing & Residential Life will notify you of your lottery number by e-mail and mail in early February. Lottery numbers are randomly generated based on class year. Along with your lottery number, you will receive detailed information about the Room Selection and Placement Process including the specific date and time you will be selecting your housing.
Housing Selection and Placement
Current Second Year Students:
Current second year students will be scheduled to select their space starting on February 20th. At the time you are scheduled to select your room, you and your roommate set (if applicable), will make your Fall 2012 room selection from the spaces that are available.
Deposit Information for Current First and Second Year Students
Students who are currently first and second year students are guaranteed on-campus housing for the upcoming year, provided they submit their housing application and deposit(s) on-line by Wednesday, January 25, 2012 at noon.
The housing deposits are: $200 for Fall and $200 for Spring. Students must deposit for each semester in which they wish to live on campus during the 2012-2013 academic year.
For example: Fall ($200) + Spring ($200) = $400
Housing & Residential Life is no longer permitted to transfer funds from your tuition account to your housing deposit. You will need to make a deposit in order to secure your housing. If you have concerns or questions, please contact Housing & Residential Life.
Please note that if you contract with an outside vendor to pay University bills (i.e., AMS Payment Plan), this payment plan WILL NOT cover housing deposits, so you will be responsible for paying these deposits for the semesters you request. If additional semesters of housing are requested after January 25, 2012, housing deposits will only be accepted on a space-available basis. Please contact Housing & Residential Life if you have a credit on your account that you wish to transfer for future semesters.
Summer Session Deposit Information:
Housing for Summer I and II 2012 can be secured now by placing a deposit on the myNEU Portal. The deposit for Summer I is $200 and Summer II is $200. A total of $400 is required for both sessions.
Summer 2013 deposit information will be available in the fall of 2012.
Cancellation Information
The University provides on-campus and leased accommodations that are assigned each semester. Students are billed at the beginning of each semester and are obligated to pay the full charge for the term. The dynamic nature of the co-op program makes it necessary for Housing & Residential Life to enforce its Cancellation Policy strictly. Housing confirmation letters are mailed each semester with a reminder that students must notify Housing & Residential Life if they do not plan to accept their assignment.
Failure to respond or to provide timely written notification of cancellation will result in a charge to students for their assigned space (i.e., if you are assigned to a room with a rate of $5,085 and you cancel your housing on 6/20/12, you will be assessed 50% of your room rate, which is $2,542.50 - NOT 50% OF YOUR DEPOSIT for fall term). If the cancellation deadline has passed, students who can demonstrate a significant change in academic, co-op, financial, or personal circumstances may petition to have this fee waived. If you are assessed a cancellation fee, it will be posted to your account in Student Accounts in 354 Richards Hall typically after the second week of the semester in question.
