If I miss the deadline, can I still submit the request form?

No. Requests are processed immediately following the due date in order to assist in priority housing assignments.

If I am granted my specialized housing request this year, does it guarantee that my request will be granted again next year?

No. You must submit a request each year prior to the housing assignment process.
