I live in Cougar Village. What are my options?
Cougar Village residents have the option to either move to a different space in Cougar Village, Evergreen Hall, or upperclass wing of a residence hall (location TBD) or homestead. “Homesteading” in Cougar Village allows Cougar Village residents to stay in their current space for next year.
If current Cougar Village residents would like to move from their current space they can either participate in Open Space Selection or participate with someone else who is homesteading as a “homesteader roommate.”
