Room Selection Timeframes
- Room Selection timeframes will be held Monday, April 14th – Friday, April 18th via the MyHousing Portal between 9am-4pm
- Your group will be emailed your Room Selection time and date.
- You are NOT to leave class for your room selection timeframe. Only one member of your pair/group needs to pick a room/suite on the MyHousing Portal.
Room Selection Process
Students will select rooms in order of their Group Lottery Number. The students Group with the lowest Group Lottery Number will go first.
Reshuffling Process
Reshuffling happens when your Group is called and the type of room you wanted is no longer available. If your Group remains intact, you may divide and pick a new space immediately. If you would like to add another person to your group, your new Group Priority will be re-considered, noting that seniority plays a role.
Choosing a Meal Plan
When you sign up for Housing for 2025-2026 you will also designate which Meal Plan you prefer for the academic year. You are able to change your Meal Plan option through the Residence Life Office up until the end of the add/drop period at the beginning of each semester.
