Specific roommate preferences are not indicated on the housing
application but instead should be entered via your MyHousing
page.
If you know a student(s) you would like to live with, go to your MyHousing
page (after completing the application) and click on the
Navigation link "Roommate Selection". Complete at least one field of the requested information (options include: student ID, last name, first name, middle initial, and email address) and when you see your
requested roommates' name, click Request Student as Roommate.
If there is more than one match to the information you enter,
you will be provided with
a list from which to make your selection.
If your desired roommate has selected “privacy” regarding his/her information
at the university, his/her name will not be available to select. In that
instance, your desired roommate will need to select you first and then
you must confirm the selection when you are notified via email of the
selection.
When it is your
time to select a room, you will have the option to place
your matched roommate request(s) into a bedspace
in the room/apartment you select. If your matched roommate has a better selection time, he/she will be able to place you into a bedspace.
Please note:
• Roommate requests must be mutual. All roommates will
need to go into their respective MyHousing pages and request each
other. Do not allow "unmatched" roommate requests to stay on your account as that will hinder your ability to
select a room.
• You do not have to have a roommate request to receive housing
but be aware that if you are assigned to a double (or larger)
space, you will have a roommate(s) assigned with you.
• A matched non-same sex/gender roommate will hinder our ability to search for rooms in all selection processes except those in the CRC F-wing.
