Capstone Scholars Community

An invitation-only program for top academic students looking to focus on their leadership skills.

Housing Application Tips For New Students

Capstone Scholars and the Capstone community is an invitation scholars program.  Once you have been accepted through the admissions office, then you can apply to live in Capstone or Columbia Hall.  The Housing application is open from February 15 until May 3, which allows plenty of time to complete the Housing application.  You must select Capstone Scholars as your top choice in order to be selected for Capstone or Columbia Halls.

Once you have been accepted to Capstone Scholars and you have submitted your top choice as Capstone Community, you will be notified that you are a part of the community via the assignments office.  From there you will have the opportunity in June to select your room via the online room selection process.
