Students are encouraged to, but not required to, select a roommate. If you do not have a roommate by the roommate selection deadline, ResLife will assign you a room with another student who does not have a roommate. The housing assignment will be made based on the compatibility of the two students (determined in your questionnaire completed during signing your contract) as well as where the students ranked their living preferences.
While first-year students can select their roommate(s), they cannot select suitemates.
Ranking your Area Preferences:
