Special Interest Housing

Special Interest Houses offer student groups the opportunity to create a unique and exciting living experience for themselves by creating opportunities to bring a group’s individual interests or passions to the larger residential community. 

For more information about past special interest groups and to apply for Special Interest housing, visit the web site of the Office of Student Life: http://www.studentaffairs.cmu.edu/Student-life/sih/index.html.

The physical spaces available as special interest houses include:
-    Doherty basement apartment
-    Resnik 480 suite
-    Resnik 580 suite
-    Shady Oak basement apartment
-    Morewood Gardens (2 spaces available)
-    Mudge House A-100

Special Interest Housing assignments are determined by the Office of Student Life, and will be provided to Housing and Dining Services. 

Once a resident’s name appears on a Special Interest Housing roster, that individual will be assigned to that particular room for 2009-2010 academic year and will not be eligible to participate in any future phases of Room Selection. 

All questions regarding Special Interest Housing should be directed to the Office of Student Life.
