Please note that anyone joining an eating house for the first time as a first year student must participate in the Self-Selection process.

SWITCHING OR REAFFILIATING: Members wishing to switch organizations as well as those who were formerly members of an eating house and wish to rejoin an organization may sign up and put in their preferences via this online survey. Those individuals have until the second Wednesday of classes at noon to complete at the survey at their leisure.
DROPPING FROM AN EATING HOUSE: This form is also for those who want to drop from an eating house and do not wish to switch into another eating house at this time.
