Program Housing and Community Based Living (CBLV)

Application Process

You may apply for up to a total of 3 program house/community based living options. If you are a Copenhagen applicant, you cannot apply to a program house or community based living unless your Copenhagen application is declined and then you can participate in open bid. The process to apply is as follows (and includes students applying to Alpha Delta Phi, Beta Theta Pi, Psi Upsilon, and Delta Kappa Epsilon):

1. Click on "Housing Contract", read, and then accept the housing contract.
2. Click on "Lead Paint Notice", read, and then accept the lead paint notice.
3. Click on "Select" under the Program Housing/Community Based Living section.  A list of the available program housing and CBLV options will be displayed.
4. Select an option. This will take you to a web site that has a description and a place to rank your preference (at the bottom of the page).
5. A pink box will appear in the upper left corner of the web page. The box will list the houses or communities you preference (in order) and have the links to the applications that need to be completed.
6. Click on the application links and complete the forms for each house or community. You will not be able to file an application more than once. The applications have to match the preferences listed on the GRS website or you will not be considered a candidate.

If you are interested in Program Housing or CBLV, you must complete the above steps by Monday, February 25, 2013 by Noon (12 p.m.)
