You will be living amongst a very diverse group of students from University Exploration and majors spanning RIT with interests ranging from Math, Science, and Engineering to Computing, Business and the Arts and Media.
There are several different ways to learn but primarily we think you will learn in two different ways:
University Exploration program students in the Exploration House will have a slightly different process for selecting their housing. Please read the instruction below:
Please use the RIT Housing publication: A How-To Guide for Selecting Your Own Roommate & Room in the Residence Halls as a guide (from pages 1-6) to complete the process. Once you have completed your contract, profile, and optional roommate selection, the Housing Operations staff will work together to place you in a room in the Exploration House
If you need assistance with the housing selection process, please do not hesitate to contact housing@rit.edu.
We expect between 30-40 University Exploration students to live on the floor along with students from other majors. Just like any other dorm, you will have Resident Assistants (RAs) on your floor. You will also work with a select group of RIT professionals including:
Melissa Keightley
Residence Coordinator, Center for Residence Life
Pradip Ananda
Academic Advisor, University Exploration
Past events have included a "Welcome" BBQ, RIT Hockey Night, Game Night at RITCHIE'S, and movie nights.
