Same Room Sign-up If a current graduate student living in the Graduate Complex pays the $200 room reservation deposit but the deadline, they are eligible to stay in their current room/apartment (same room sign-up), provided the status of their apartment has not changed (ex: converted to a staff space). All students who fall into this category, and would like to stay in their room must come to the Residence Life Office between 8:00am - 5:00pm to sign a housing contract. Grad students interested in same room sign-up but are unable to get to Residence Life during the designated time should email living@wm.edu to designate Residence Life as your proxy. Students who do not want to remain in their current room/apartment, and want to select another available room/apartment can do so on-line on March 22. |

Once a person's room selection window is open, they will be able to log into the room selection process and select a room at the Graduate Complex. Rooms within apartments at the Graduate Complex are selected individually so students hoping to live together in an apartment should try to coordinate their selection. If a given apartment does not have full occupancy after the Room Selection process, apartment-mates will be assigned from among the new graduate students enrolling for the Fall 2012 semester. |
