Returning Resident Room Sign-Up for 2010-2011 will begin on December 1, 2009 for all on-campus residents. New in 2010-2011! As we have done in the past three years, we will continue to provide returning students with some flexibility in living in East Campus Village.
UGA Housing staff will lead information sessions in each community to answer residents' questions about any aspect of the Returning Resident Room Sign-Up Process. Any student may attend any session!
Note: All communication to students regarding Room Sign-Up will be sent to the student's UGA e-mail account. Students are expected to check their e-mail regularly for important information.
Dates & Process Information: Any student not initially selected to participate will be automatically placed on a waiting list and notified by e-mail. On January 25-26, 2010, the Housing Assignments Office will compile residents' UGA GPA and UGA credit hour information from the University mainframe. Students are advised to resolve any grade changes or "incompletes" by this date. All communication to students regarding Room Sign-Up will be sent to the student's UGA e-mail account.

Phase 4: Fall Waitlist Participants February 12, 2010: Any student who was not selected to participate in Phase 1 and still desires housing for the following academic year will be placed on the Fall Waitlist. As cancellations are received and vacancies identified, students on the Fall Waitlist will be notified via e-mail of any change in their status. Once they become eligible for housing, they will be contacted and a non-refundable $75 charge will be immediately posted to their Student Account. While this charge is non-refundable, the full $75 will be applied toward the $275 fall semester prepayment that is required to activate a contract with UGA Housing. The $275 prepayment will then be applied toward fall rent. Payment of the non-refundable $75 charge will be due at the Bursar's Office by the date determined by the Bursar. Off campus students can register for housing beginning January 8 , 2010, by completing the housing registration form and paying the non-refundable $35 registration fee in the UGA Housing Assignments Office in Russell Hall. Students will be assigned an OASIS appointment time based on the date of their registration for housing for 2010-2011. March 19, 2010: On this date, all off-campus students who have requested on-campus housing will be notified of their status.
Students Participating in Off-Campus Academic Programs: All students in programs away from the UGA Athens campus, including those studying abroad or participating in the National Student Exchange, during the room sign-up period are eligible to sign-up during the appropriate period as indicated below. Students must complete the steps outlined below in order to participate. All sign-up is conducted online via OASIS. This sign-up process is for on-campus housing beginning fall 2010. Students interested in on-campus housing for spring 2011 only should contact the Housing Assignments Office in September 2010 for more information.
Housing preference in Rutherford Hall is based on acceptance to the Franklin Residential College (FRC). If you are interested in this program, please apply via the FRC Web site, http://www.uga.edu/frc. Unlike the automated process described above, the student's request for housing will be manually entered by Assignments Office personnel. The student will then be contacted with an OASIS appointment time or notification that he or she has been added to a waiting list. If an appointment time has been issued the student may then utilize the automated Sign-Up system beginning with Phase 3 of the process for on-campus residents. There is no registration fee for students who meet the criteria stated above.

Participation Selection and Priority Determination If more students request to live on campus than there are spaces available, the Housing Assignments Office will select students to participate in Returning Student Room Sign-Up based on the following system: Part 1 — Data Capture: In late January, the Housing Assignments Office will compile the following information from the University mainframe:
Students are advised to make sure any grade changes or incompletes are resolved by this time. Also, please note that credits and/or grades earned through exemptions, Advanced Placement coursework, testing or transfer from other institutions will not apply. Only hours and grades earned at the University of Georgia are considered. Part 2 — Classification & Ordering: Using the data captured in Part 1, students who requested to participate in Returning Resident Sign-up will be grouped into academic classifications based on the number of credit hours that they have earned at UGA:
Part 3 — Selection of Participants: The proportion of spaces in UGA Housing currently occupied by members of each classification group will determine the percentage of spaces that will be allocated to each group for next year. These spaces will then be granted to residents based on their ranking within the classification — the exact number of UGA credit hours earned and grade point average. All students who are selected to participate in Returning Resident Room Sign-Up will have a non-refundable $75 charge posted to their Student Account and be notified via e-mail. All students who request to participate in Returning Resident Room Sign-Up but are not initially selected will be automatically placed on a waiting list and notified via e-mail. All of the students selected to participate in Returning Resident Room Sign-Up will be granted appointment times in the OASIS system. Those students who pay the non-refundable $75 fee by the deadline may then select their spaces in one of three ways:
Appointment times are prioritized based upon the following system.
Please note that all students selected to participate in Returning Resident Room Sign-Up will have a space available to them. This ranking process is only used to determine the order in which those students who were selected to participate in Returning Resident Room Sign-Up get to select their spaces.
