Residence Life offers students various avenues to apply for a room change throughout the academic year.
Open Room Selection - Room change requests begin the third week of each semester and conclude at the end of week 13 of each semester. Room changes can be submitted and granted if and when space is available. Our typical options for residents during this time are:
- You and a friend of the same sex may be able to move into an open double room on campus. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on sex, class ranking, or themed housing.
- If you and your roommate wish to move rooms or buildings. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on gender, class ranking, or themed housing.
- You may move into a friend’s room of the same sex if they have an open space available or vice versa. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on sex, class ranking, or themed housing.
- Depending on occupancy we may allow students to move into Super Singles.
Mid-Year Open Room Selection - Room change requests that have been submitted during Fall Semester, but have yet to be approved will be considered for end of the semester room changes. Information regarding end of the quarter room changes is provided typically towards the end of November/beginning of December and is based on expected vacancies. Students approved to move in these circumstances will be asked to move all of their belongings over to the new space prior to their departure or bring all of their items home in order to prepare open spaces for new spring arrivals. Our typical options for residents during this time are:
- You and a friend of the same sex may be able to move into an open double room on campus. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on sex, class ranking, or themed housing.
- If you and your roommate wish to move rooms or buildings. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on sex, class ranking, or themed housing.
- You may move into a friend’s room of the same sex if they have an open space available or vice versa. The applicable building criteria will still apply if it is based on sex, class ranking, or themed housing.
- Depending on occupancy we may allow students to move into Super Singles.
All Other Times – Room changes may be requested at other times during the semester. Anyone seeking a room change outside of the room change periods must first take the appropriate action steps (meetings, mediations, etc.) as provided by your residence hall staff, and final approval must be given by the Director of Residence Life. For more information regarding roommate mediation, we encourage you to read below.
