Undergraduate dormitories at MIT. Students are required to live in one of the eleven dormitories their first year. Generally, they select a temporary dorm by lottery over the summer, then confirm their placement in the fall or enter the housing adjustment lottery to move into a dorm they prefer. Exceptions are McCormick Hall and Next House, which have Residence-Based Advising programs and do not allow students to move out of their assigned dorm for their first year.
