Five Days Left to Apply for Winter Break Housing

Planning to stay in your room this winter break? The deadline to apply is this Friday, Oct. 15.

The College will be closed from noon on Dec. 22 until Jan. 16, so you'll need to provide a good reason in order to stay on campus during that time.

Here are the acceptable reasons listed on the application:

-You are a varsity athlete required to stay

-You are an international student who is not a freshman

-You are a thesis writer who must stay to conduct research

-You are authorized to work in a lab on campus

-You have some other reason/special circumstance

Remember that you might need to provide contact information for a supervisor or an advisor for some of these reasons. Notifications will be sent out before the Thanksgiving holiday.
