• Note: fill out a variety of occupancy
configurations. Do Not apply for just one type
of unit.
• Example: a group filling out a card for a 4-
person apartment/house should also fill out two
2-person cards. If they do not receive the 4-
person spot, they still have an opportunity to
receive a 2-person spot.
• On each card, indicate your group’s occupancy
preference and include a group member’s
contact information.
