How do I sign up for the community? |
|
During the online sign-up process you will be asked to select a special interest housing option. Simply select Magellan House as your preference and indicate Garneau Hall as your first choice. Space is limited after May 1, so list an additional three residence hall preferences. If you have a roommate preference, both you and your roommate must request each other in order to be matched in the community. If your requested roommate is not in the Magellan House, we may not be able to place you together in the House if interest in the house is high. |
 |
Current WMU students interested in living in the Magellan House should come to the Office of Residence Life to sign up. |
