Rumors have been floating around about what UCF plans to do with the old Theta Chi fraternity house since the day they were removed from the property. Now new details are finally surfacing.
Knight News received a tip that UCF was planning to place non-Greek students in the fraternity house for the upcoming spring semester due to an overbooking of on campus housing.
When asked about the tip, UCF spokesman Chad Binette said, “We have made no determinations about the long-term use of this house. However, we are scheduled to accommodate four male students at the former Theta Chi house on a temporary basis during the spring semester.”
Binette did not specify as to whether these four students were involved in Greek life or not.
UCF often has multiple openings for on campus housing during move-in weekends, according to Binette.
“We typically have multiple openings come up during move-in weekend, so these four students could soon be housed in other locations. The students have agreed to the temporary arrangements,” said Binette.

UCF did not specify what would happen if more students wanted to live on campus come the spring semester. If no openings are available on campus, it is uncertain if UCF would continue to fill the house with more new residents.
It was also unsaid whether these four male students would have a RA if they lived in the house or if they would have the entire house to themselves.
