We're excited about your interest in GC Student Housing and wanted to update you on the process. The reapplication process for returners (new application for incoming students) is under revision and promises to be more convenient and efficient for both students and staff.
Once the online process/system is completed, returning students will be directed to the housing webpage to complete an application that asks for various information (name, address, telephone numbers, GC ID#, building selection, room selection, meal plan selection, roommate preference, review of terms/conditions, electronic signature, etc). Each application requires a $300 processing fee (application/damage deposit); current students’ deposits should post to the application account at the time of submission which means there is no need to resubmit another $300 payment. Returning students will be given a deadline to submit their applications (allows first choice to returning students over incoming students). After the deadline, incoming/new students will be assigned rooms within the residence halls. The best way to get your selection of building/room/roommate (all parties) is to complete the reapplication process by the deadline (TBA). Please note that Student Housing will not be able to make numerous room/roommate changes due to last minute requests, etc., so be sure of your room choice and other students (academic, personal, cultural and social maturity) you want to room with.
