Getting into Housing
In order to request housing, all first-year students need to make the required housing deposit with their application. After the deposit has been received the Office of Housing & Residential Life will send information on how to proceed with any living preferences that you may have to your Wentworth email account. The Roommate Matching Questionnaire will not be available until after May 1st.
The Office of Housing and Residential Life sends out housing assignment packets in early August. Included in the packet, you will receive your housing assignment, your roommate's name and Wentworth email address, the names of any suitemates you may have, and instructions for the move-in process.
Entering students who need housing accommodations in regards to their housing should follow the Housing Accommodation Process to make a request.
For questions, please call the OHRL at 617-989-4160 or email housing@wit.edu.
Special Interest Housing
Overview
First year housing in Baker and Evans Way/Tudbury are living learning communities. Students share a common Wentworth Opening Week (WOW) group, housing areas, and seminar sections. They have an Resident Director, Resident Assistant, and an Advisor (the seminar instructor). Programming overlaps can capitalize on seminar syllabus and a connection with their instructor. There are four areas under the umbrella of Special Interest Housing.
All first year students are automatically placed in one of our first year residential learning communities. Residents will have the same WOW group and Seminar section passed on to their living area. Students will engage in the academic and social transition to Wentworth with mentorship from the New Student Programs Office and Residential Life staff members.
