Residential Program and Four Year House applications for upperclassmen will be accepted January 17, 2018 at 9am – January 22, 2018 at 5pm, at MyHomeAtPenn.
It’s not just first-year students who are offered the opportunity to live with other students and faculty who share a passion for a particular subject— many Residential Programs offer membership to upperclass students too! Membership in a Residential Program is completely voluntary but requires a special application process.
