[HOW TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE]
The randomized drawing will occur by the third day of each month up until May 3. The Office of Residence Life will reach out to each winner through BGSU email and the phone number on file (make sure you have your voicemail box set up!). If a winner doesn't respond within 24 hours, their right to the prize will be forfeited, and a new winner will be selected.
Upon accepting the prize by picking a room before standard room selection, winners agree to participate in social media and other marketing efforts to promote the giveaway.
When contacted, the Office of Residence Life will discuss with each winner how to select a room for themself and their chosen roommate.
_____________
[IMPORTANT DETAILS]
Students are not required to have their $200 initial housing payment made to be eligible to win. However, before any student can be assigned to a room, the initial housing payment must be paid.
The additional student who is pulled into the room by a winner must have their housing and meal plan agreement signed and paid their $200 initial payment at the time of the room selection. They must also be a new incoming student admitted at BGSU to qualify.
This prize does not offer any discount on the housing rate, and each student assigned to a room through this giveaway will be responsible for the full payment of the room in accordance with their student bill. Cancellations to the agreement by May 1, 2023, will receive a 100% refund and will not be billed. Cancelations after May 1, 2023, will be granted in accordance with the forfeiture schedule.
If the winner does not submit an eligible student to be their roommate by the Office of Residence Life deadline, the remaining space will be forfeited.
Once a student has won one of the 20 prizes, they will no longer be eligible to win the remaining prizes for this giveaway. Students who have agreed to be the roommate of one of the winners will also not be eligible.
The beds selected by the winner and their roommate must be assigned to the same building. Any student who is assigned to a room through this giveaway does not have the right to their room assignment. If one of the students decides to do a room change into a different room/building or cancels their contract, the vacant bed will open up to standard room selection, and a random roommate may be assigned.
Returning students who will be enrolled full-time at BGSU are not eligible to win.
The Office of Residence Life is not responsible for prize notifications being marked as spam, junk or otherwise hidden from the recipient.

Neurodivergent: having a mind that functions in ways that differ from societal standards of “normal.” This group aims to provide students with a place to share their struggles, give and receive support from others, and discuss their lived experiences without having to mask who they are. Each session will start with check-ins and introductions. Students can then ask for time to discuss a challenge they are experiencing or a topic they wish to discuss. This group is open to all BGSU students. Formal diagnosis is not required. Those who are questioning a neurodivergent identity are welcome. Students may attend weekly or drop-in as needed. Group will not meet over spring break.
Stop by the Career Center to get a free professional headshot! The Career Center holds professional headshot drop-in hours from 1-3 p.m. on Fridays on a first come first served basis during the academic year.
Stay on Task with Body Doubling at the Library
We know it can be hard to get started and keep going with all the studying, writing, designing, and everything else you need to do at the end of the semester. Have you ever tried body doubling to help you stay on task? In a nutshell, studying with other people who are also studying provides the gentle social pressure to keep working that can be just what you need to be your most productive. Join us at the library in the first floor large group study room for quiet work time with snacks and a schedule with 25 minutes of work and 5 minutes of break, because breaks are necessary, too!
