Apartment housing Selection for the 2018-2019 academic year begins on Tuesday, February 20th, with Circle Apartment Retention (squatting). Groups of students with an average of 2.2+ completed semesters by the end of fall 2017 are eligible to log onto HomerConnect and try to select a Circle or Garden apartment through the Housing Portal. Remember - apartments require that a group completely fill all spaces within an apartment. Group leaders only should log into HomerConnect to select an apartment for the entire group. Apartment Housing selection dates and times are listed below.
