Who can live in Rector Village?
Students with senior, junior or sophomore status are eligible to live in Rector Village. Students must have completed at least 2 semesters. First-year students are not eligible for housing in Rector Village.

How do I get into Rector Village?
A majority of the suites in Rector Village will be chosen or through the Rector Village Lottery, though two suites are reserved for sophomores in the Group Living application process. A few spaces will also be available in the general residence hall lottery; those spaces can be selected individually or by pulling in a friend.

Students wishing to select a Rector Village suite through the Rector Village Lottery, must complete and submit the Rector Village Lottery application by 4:00pm on Wednesday, April 2.  (Groups of 5 students should calculate their Group Lottery Number using the lowest three numbers.) The Residence Life & Housing staff will determine which groups will receive a Rector Village suite based upon their Group Lottery Number. Students will be notified of their status within the Rector Village Lottery by Friday, April 4.

Students who receive a Rector Village suite will be able to explore other options in the UOAH lotteries. However, please note that if any members of your group select a UOAH space, all members of your group will forfeit the Rector Village suite.

Students who do not receive a Rector Village suite will be notified of their spot on the waiting list, determined by their Group Lottery Number, for a Rector Village suite. If a suite would open up, the spaces will be filled based on the waiting list.

 

All students must sign-up for the lottery on-line and have a lottery number before submitting an application.
