How Priority is Assigned
For each upperclass room section process, with the exception of Same Room, random numbers are issued to each eligible student to determine the assignment of a selection date and time. The random numbers are generated by the Housing assignments system (Adirondack), executed within the database of all eligible applicants for each process. Please be aware that assignment times are assigned following the application deadline date for each process, as outlined on the Housing Selection Calendar.

If your application is not complete by the deadline date, you will not be assigned a selection time.

• Each selection date and time is exclusive to that process. Selection dates and times do not carry over from one process to another. You will be assigned a selection date and time for each process in which you are eligible to participate. Your selection date and time will be posted to your MyHousing page. Your selection date and time will disappear once you have selected a room or the process it was assigned for ends.

• Selection times are not transferable. You may not give your time to another person.

• Selection times include some gaps in order to accommodate anyone who was left out in error.

• Students who are Scholars receive an extra "push" in the assignment of a selection time. If any other student or group of students is provided with a similar “push” in their selection time, that information will be published on this website and available for all to read. Note: Not all students who are designated as a Scholar are eligible for this priority. If you have a question about whether you are eligible, please contact us at housinghelp@learnlink.emory.edu.
