College Assignment Appeals for New UCSC Students

Welcome!
We're excited that you've chosen to attend UC Santa Cruz. We're sure you'll find that our campus, including our residential college system, is truly unique in all that it offers undergraduate students.

If you have been assigned to a college that was not your first preference, we encourage you to take some time to read about your new college and learn what it has to offer. Once you settle into the activities at your new college, we're sure that you will agree with most UC Santa Cruz students when they say that their college is "the best."

The residential staff welcome your questions and will help you get to know your college. Feel free to contact them directly:

Submitting An Appeal:

There is an appeal procedure for students who do not get assigned to their preferred college. While we don't expect to grant many appeals, should you choose to submit an appeal, please follow these directions:

  1. Submit your online housing application/contract by the deadline (listed in your housing packet). Appeals will not be considered for students who have not completed the online housing application process. If your appeal is granted, we will send you application instructions for your new college.
  2. Also by the deadline, submit an appeal at studenthousing.ucsc.edu explaining your reasons for appealing your college assignment.

Decisions on college assignment appeals will be communicated approximately 2 weeks after your housing application deadline.

Once again, welcome to UC Santa Cruz!
