New graduate students who apply by the first-round Lottery deadline and select "willing to live anywhere on campus" are guaranteed housing. Munger, the GSB Residences, the off-campus, subsidized housing and premium studios (for single students) are not automatically assigned out of the final choice “assign me anywhere on campus” due to their price. These options were only assigned to students who specifically listed them on their applications.

- 280 of those assigned were Graduate School of Business assignments to the GSB Residences.
