Good morning everyone,
This weekend, Operations concluded our housing renewal process. We had 1619 students choose housing between AC, Housing 1, 4, 5, and Chris Gaupp. I wanted to provide you some FAQs to help with any questions to be answered:
I am not happy with my assignment, what can I do?
On Friday, April 15th, Residential Life will be emailing all students the room switch request form. Students can fill out that form to request a change.
How long will it take for us to hear something?
Residential Life works on switches from May through the end of July. If you can be accommodated, you will receive an email on your Stockton account with the room switch offer. You will have 2 days to respond whether you accept or decline the offer.
My group chose at a certain time, but there were no Housing 5 available. Why?
Housing 5 was our most sought after location this year. It only represents 20% of our total housing renewal beds.
I was told groups of 4 would get priority. Why were there apartments in Housing 5 with only 1 student in them?
There are some students that we need to be in the building, such as RAs. All groups of 4 went before all groups of 3, 2, and 1.
What is the chance that I will get the housing I request through the form?
We are unable to predict how much movement or where, however, we historically have made between 200-300 moves per summer.
If these questions do not help successfully finish the call, please direct them to email housing@stockton.edu where we can further assist them.
Thank you everyone!
Operations
Between January 15th, 2022 and March 31st, 2022, please log into your Housing Portal to sign the Housing Contract and pay the eDeposit for the Academic Year 2022-2023 Housing Application. You will confirm your 9-Month Contract, but have the option to add Winter and/or Summer Housing. Adding both additional terms will sign you up for a 12-Month Contract.
Through March 31st, 2022, students will form Roommate Groups online in the Housing Portal. The individual that is the Group Leader will create a Group by creating a Group Name. The Group Leader will then add people to the Roommate Group.
NOTE: Students will only be able to add other current students that have an active Housing Application. New First-Year and New Transfer students will not be searchable. Only students who have completed a Housing Application will be searchable.
Students should aim to have full roommate groups. A full group is any group with at least four (4) members. Groups of less than four (4) can be created, but full roommate groups will receive priority during the Selection Phase.
A Roommate Social will be held to assist students in creating full roommate groups.
The last step of the renewal process has the Group Leader select a specific housing assignment for all members of their group, including themselves. The Group Leader is responsible for ensuring they are aware of their group's preferences for housing locations and styles, as well as assigning each member into a specific bed in their housing choice.
All groups will have the opportunity to indicate if they are interested in the Atlantic City Priority selection day. For any group that has a member indicate interest in Atlantic City, that group will receive a selection time slot for the first day.
Atlantic City Priority Selection Date
- April 6th, 2022
Note: Time slots will be emailed to the group leader by the end of day on April 4th, 2022.
Full Housing Selection Dates
-April 9th, 2022
-April 10th, 2022
Note: Time slots will be emailed to the group leader by the end of day on April 7th, 2022. If a group leader opted into the Atlantic City Priority date, and did not select housing, they will receive a new time slot with all other groups selecting housing.
If you have any questions, please contact Housing@Stockton.edu
All Students including RA's must attend one renewal session.
If you are returning, you must sign your housing contract so that fee can be waived
