Conference Assistant Application

Conference Assistant

The CA selection process will begin in January and will continue until all positions are filled. Early application submission will receive first reviews. Applications can be submitted at any time, but positions fill quickly, limiting the number of openings for later submissions. We encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible.

If you have any questions regarding the application process, please contact Single Student Housing at (801) 422-2643 or (801)422-4766.

Selection Process

The Selection Committee for the applicant's preferred housing area will carefully review the completed application.
Applicants selected for the interview will be contacted directly by the housing area Selection Committee. Every completed application is guaranteed a review, but due to the large number of applicants, it will not be possible to interview every applicant.
Applicants selected for an interview should be notified near the middle of January.
The Selection Committee will offer positions around mid-February. Applicants not selected for an interview will be notified by email of the Committee's decision.
All completed applications will be kept on file for any additional openings.
