Lottery Number Notification

Current third and fourth year students are randomly selected to receive either a lottery number or a wait list number. If you apply with a mutual roommate set, all members of the group will receive an individual lottery number OR all will receive an individual wait list number.

Housing & Residential Life will e-mail your individual lottery or wait list number on or around February 6, 2012. Should you be randomly selected to receive a lottery number, the housing deposit is due by Monday, February 13, 2012 at noon. You will receive further information in the notification mailing about submitting your housing deposit and when you are scheduled to participate in Housing Selection.

If you receive a wait list number, you will receive information in the notification mailing about the wait list process and off-campus housing alternatives.

Housing Selection and Placement

Current third and fourth year students who receive a lottery number, will be scheduled to select their space on-line starting February 16, 2012. 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 at your scheduled time.

More specific instructions will be included in the notification sent in February.

Deposit Information

Current third and fourth year students can submit a housing application on-line at myNEU.neu.edu prior to noon on January 25, 2012. Since current third and fourth year students are not guaranteed housing, you will either receive a lottery or waitlist number. Students who receive a lottery number will be required to submit a deposit by February 13, 2012 at noon in order to secure a place in the selection process.

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

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.

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 would be required to secure 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 6/20/11, 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 at 354 Richards Hall typically after the second week of the semester in question.
