3. Receive NOTICE of PIN Number, Room Selection Time & Credit Hour Confirmation
Once your housing contract is signed, you will receive an email notice to your college email account from the Housing Office providing you with a PIN Number, Room Selection Time, and Credit Hour confirmation. Any AP/CLEP Credits you have will NOT be included in your Credit Hour total. It is important that you retain this email.
The credit hour system is in place to be equitable for all students. Students who choose to manipulate the process to gain an unfair advantage will be subject to student disciplinary procedures and will automatically lose their chosen housing assignment. Manipulation includes, but is not limited to:
-
Signing up for a room with a person that you do not intend to live with in order to reserve rooms for your friends on the floor.
-
Giving more than one group your credit number and PIN for apartment sign-ups
-
Signing up for an apartment, then signing up for a residence hall room
