Roommate Selection and Room Changes

Room Change Requests

At this time, room change requests are on hold until after the first two weeks of the semester. This allows us to ensure that all students have the chance to settle into their assigned spaces or cancel if needed.

If you’re interested in requesting a room change, please contact your Assistant Director to schedule a meeting. The process will begin after the initial two-week period.

We understand that living on campus can bring new experiences and challenges. Even if your roommate matches your profile on paper, there may be nuances that can’t be captured in a short questionnaire.

Steps for Requesting a Room Change

Once the semester is underway, here’s how the room change process works:

1. Initial Check-in: Start by discussing your concerns with your building staff. You can reach out to your Resident Assistant (RA) or your Assistant Director. These staff members are trained to help you navigate roommate conflicts and can offer advice, coaching, or even serve as a mediator.
2. Room Change Request Form: If the situation can’t be resolved through communication, your Assistant Director will provide you with a Room Change Request form. You’ll have the opportunity to outline your preferences and expectations.
3. Room Availability: If a room matching your preferences becomes available, you’ll be given the chance to visit the potential space and meet your prospective roommate. Instructions for the room change, including the checkout and check-in process, will be provided at that time.

Please note that room changes are not guaranteed. We will do our best to accommodate your request based on availability. Thank you for your patience as we work to make your residential experience as positive as possible.

You will receive a response as soon as possible.
