- 12. This is your confirmation screen on the housing application. This is an example of the email you will receive once your housing selection is confirmed.
Editor's Notes
- The following presentation will help guide you through the Lottery Process for housing selection for Fall 2011.
- In order to participate in the room selection process, you will need to make sure you pay your $300 housing deposit and complete a housing application. Both of these things can be completed through your hofstra portal.
- To check the status of available rooms on campus students can at any time log into their portal account and select the room selection lottery link under the residential programs menu. Available rooms are listed in the order of single rooms followed by double, triple and four person suites. By clicking on this link students will also have the ability to see their designated lottery date and time.
- While going through the lottery process please remember that you must fill each room to capacity. In other words if you are choosing to live in a double you must have two people, if you want a triple you must have three people, if you’d like a suite then you must have four people.
- In addition, make sure you have the correct name and identification number for all of the members of the room that you want to live with. You will list your roommates in the Specific Roommate Request section as seen here.
- One important thing to note is that you must list your preferred roommate in the first available section in cases where you are looking to live in a suite. The suitemates will be listed after that.
- Here we will show you an example of how the process works. The Room type requested should be automatically listed based on the number of preferred roommates you originally indicated. In the example shown this student is choosing to live in a single room.
- In this example the student is looking for a double room. Students will see a drop down menu listing all available rooms. This will be updated automatically throughout the lottery process as students choose rooms.
- If by chance, you find that the room type you prefer is no longer available then you will have two options moving forward. You can either reconfigure your group and delete members from your specific roommate request area or you can request to be randomly assigned as shown on the next slide.
- If the room you are looking for is not available you can always ask for random placement to be done by the Office of Residential Programs. In order to do this go back to the section inquiring about your study habits and the third question should be switched to “Yes” to be randomly assigned.
- Once you click the submit button, the process is final and no additional changes can be made. You are not only finalizing your room but who you’ve chosen as roommates as well.
- Upon completing the lottery process you will automatically receive an email to your HOFSTRA PRIDE ACCOUNT confirming your placement. Please be sure to verify that you receive your confirmation email after completing the lottery process.
- Once completed, you cannot go back to make any changes so if you have questions or concerns moving forward, feel free to visit us in 244 Student Center. Thank you for participating in the lottery process and GOOD LUCK!
