Lottery Procedure 1. Room Lottery First Year Residents The Green Hall Room Lottery will be conducted in advance of Fall Residence arrival. From the list given to us by the housing lottery, the incoming residents will be contacted for their preference of single room or double room and/or roommate. If a resident cannot be located, it will be assumed that she prefers a single if at all possible, and will otherwise be assigned a roommate at random. New residents will be given a number that is generated randomly by computer, and which will be used to then assign rooms. These room assignments will be performed only after the Continuing Student Fall Lottery has been completed.
2. Room Lottery for Continuing Students It is mandatory for all continuing students who may want to participate in the Green Hall Continuing Student Fall Lottery (run during the summer) to inform an officer within one week immediately following the Green Hall Spring Room Lottery even if she has not yet received confirmation about housing in Green Hall for the upcoming Fall Term. This lottery is for those women who may be unhappy with their Fall Lottery room assignments determined during the Spring Room Lottery. Rooms may become available due to the campus wide lottery assignments. When it is determined who will be officially living in Green Hall during the Fall Term, a lottery will take place. The order in which residents are contacted will comply with the existing lottery rules. In case of equal seniority status the computer will choose among those individuals randomly. This lottery requires that if you are not living in Green Hall during the Summer Term you are required to provide a list of rooms in preference order, indicating those rooms you would be willing to move into over the one currently assigned to you for the Fall Term. This must be done before you leave for the summer and will be your responsibility. Failure to provide the list will disqualify you from the lottery.
3. Fall Term Registration Day Lottery The in-person Fall Term Registration Day ("Reg Day") lottery will take place in case a resident decides at this time that she would like to move. This applies to both Continuing and First Year students. But no First Year Residents will be forced to move from their assigned rooms, and the only rooms available will be those not yet filled by the MIT Housing Office, or consequent to another resident choosing to move. This lottery could include any First Years who may be unhappy in their assigned room.
4. Spring Term Registration Day Lottery The in-person Spring Term Reg Day lottery will take place to fill any vacancies left by graduates of the Fall term.
5. Spring Lottery The in person Spring lottery, which includes both Fall assignments and Summer assignments, will take place to fill vacancies of Spring Graduates or those away for the summer.
