How do queue points work?

When you join a housing queue, you start collecting queue points from the day you joined the queue or from the payment date if it’s a paid queue. The queue points are then used when you apply for housing.

Queues that only consider queue points
In some queues, the number of queue points is the only factor that matters—the person with the most points gets the apartment.

Queues that consider both queue points and profile
Some queues take into account both your queue points and your profile. Here, queue points act as an added advantage but are not the only deciding factor.
