Would you like to live and study in a CECS "House" next year?
Engineering & Computer Science "House" Program for 2010-11
Would you like to live & study with other ECS students in a campus apartment dedicated to ECS majors next year? Residence Services and the College of Engineering & Computer Science are co-sponsoring a residential "House" program to encourage your success during the 2010-2011 Academic Year, with an option for summer.
Where will I live?:
The "House" program will be located in the newly furnished College Park apartments (four private bedrooms, two baths, full kitchen, washer dryer, and more). For more details and floor plans, go to http://www.wright.edu/housing/options/college.html.
Who is eligible?:
Current residents in the ECS programs are eligible. These individuals will be able to 'pull in' others who they want to have as roommates, (including friends whether they're in ECS or not, regardless of their current residence on or off-campus) and transfers who plan to attend WSU next year.
How do I sign up?:
Sign up by sending an e-mail to housing@wright.edu before February 5, 2010. The subject line should say "ECS House", with the name and UID of the resident. Residents who want to fill an entire four bedroom unit should include the names of the other residents in their e-mail, and those students should send their own e-mail with preferred roommates as well, to ensure that roommate group members are mutual selections. Groups of four students who draw entire apartments will be given priority in the assignment process.
What about Room Selection?
Students in this program will skip Room Selection, however residents must come to Residence Services to make a pre-payment by April 1, 2010 to complete their application, like everyone else, and choose their apartment from those that will be allocated for the program. All apartments will be assigned according to the time and date of the completion of the application (first come, first served). If you have any questions, please contact us Toll-Free at 1-866-WSU-HOME (1-866-978-4663) or e-mail at housing@wright.edu.
Any remaining spaces in this building that are still open after February 5, 2010 may be filled during Room Selection on a first come, first served basis by other students. We will consolidate assignments to encourage and support the success of the primary group in the building via programming and other activities focused on their academic interests and related topics.
