Form Compatible Groups

It is extremely important to form a lottery group with students you can live comfortably with, rather than students with lots of points who aren't a good match for you. Most students who have their hearts set on getting a mod are able to do so. Several groups with 10-12 points were able to win 5 and 6 person Greenwich mods through past lotteries. A change to the 2009 lottery was the addition of Core Groups. A Core Group consists of 4 students who are committed to living together during the upcoming school year. Groups are required to register no later than April 22 at noon and will receive 1 additional point in the lottery.

A Year's Commitment Rooms chosen during the lottery will be your room for the entire next year. There is no room choosing process in the fall. Rooms that become vacant between fall and spring, due to students graduating or going on leave will be filled by students returning from leave and by the spring entering class. Take time to carefully consider your housing options now, prior to this year-long commitment. If a room in a mod becomes available after the lottery, residents will not be able to "input" a replacement. Those rooms will be filled with unhoused returning from leave students, dorm residents who completed a mod wait list form, or entering students.
