Wondering which residence halls usually fill up fastest? Swipe to see what filled quickly during last year’s room selection!

This is a helpful snapshot of halls that were in high demand during the most recent selection process. It can give you a sense of which options may go quickly so you can plan your preferences ahead of time.

Just a reminder that every year is different. What’s available can change based on student choices, group sizes, and other factors (like McDavis Hall being an option this year!), so use this as a guide while building your list.
