housing allocation
Residence assignment process
Housing allocation is the process or system by which housing units are distributed to people, typically by a government agency or institution.
The term appears most often in contexts involving public housing, social housing, or university dormitories: The council's housing allocation policy prioritizes families with children.
An allocation can also refer to a specific unit assigned: We received our housing allocation last week.
