welcome class of 2010!

We hope that you will find Next House a great place to live during orientation and will choose to join our community this coming year. This page contains a collection of links and information aimed at helping you in your transition to MIT.

Be sure to explore the rest of this website, as it will give you a better idea of what Next House is like. A description of our community, floorplans, and photos of Next House can be found on the about next house page. Information about the upcoming freshmen housing lottery can be found here. Also, the class of 2010 website will always have the most up-to-date information about deadlines and orientation activities.

We're having card games everywhere...right now we're planning to have poker in the country kitchen, with maybe a dartboard or something down there for a more saloon-like effect (perfect for Texas hold'em, no?), while other card games take place up in the dining hall. Food(snacks and smoothies) will be downstairs.

 

Next House Wing Rush

Wed 8/30/06 (specific time will be announced via email soon)

 

All incoming freshmen will get a tour of the dorm, stopping in each wing to get an idea of what each wing is like. This can be very helpful in determining where you want to live.

 

Freshmen Housing Lottery

Wed 8/30/06 (specific time will be announced via email soon)

Next Dining

 

Freshmen select their final rooming assignment based on their lottery pick. Lottery numbers will be determined a few hours before the lottery and be emailed out to the dorm. For more information on the lottery process, visit the housing information page. If you have any questions, feel free to email the housing chair, Ellen Wong.

 

Be sure to check out the about next house page which contains information about the dorm as well as floorplans that you can print out.

 

Wing Dinners

Go out to a nice dinner off campus with your wing and meet your new neighbors for the year. (Be sure to bring your own money!)
