Waitlist Offers
Due to the high volume of applications we have received, we anticipate making a limited number of offers from the waitlist. Additionally, we anticipate the majority of these offers will be made after August 1, and once the self-selection process has concluded.
Accommodations
You may submit an accommodation request once you have applied to the waitlist. Approval of an accommodation does not guarantee a space in residence.
Alternative Accommodation Options
While waiting for a potential offer, we recommend exploring off-campus housing. Plenty of options are available in Kingston. Please note that a signed lease cannot be broken if, later, a residence waitlist spot opens.
For resources, guidance, and support, visit the Off-Campus Living Advisor (OCLA) website or with the OCLA for personalized help.
