Future Students FAQs

Housing Selection

When can I pick my room??? 
Beginning May 13th, you will be able to log on to the housing website to fill out some basic information about yourself and start looking for a roommate. You can find more information about these steps here. You will be given a timeslot based on your date of deposit for when you can log on to choose a room. Timeslots will be during the week of June 22nd. For a full timeline, click here.

How does housing selection work?
Housing selection happens completely online. You'll go to a website and log in. Then you'll be able to fill out your housing profile, search for roommates, and sign your housing agreement. You will be assigned a time to choose your room based on when you sent in your deposit. When that time comes, you can log on and select your room! 

Roommates

Can I be roommates with someone I know?
Sure! When the housing selection website opens, you'll be able to communicate with that person and request them as a roommate. 

Do I have to have a roommate?
All incoming freshmen are required to have a roommate. However, if you have a medical condition that requires you to have a single, you can fill out a Request for Special Housing Accommodations form. 

What if I deposited really early but the person I want to live with deposited really late?
That's fine. Whoever deposited first will have the earlier timeslot and will be able to "pull" the other person into a room. More instructions will be given as we get closer to housing selection! 

Move-In

When can I move into my room?
Move-In Day is Saturday, August 24th. Residents can move in starting at 9:00am. 

What if I need to move in early for a pre-orientation  program or athletic team? 
Incoming students who are coming to campus early for a pre-orientation program or for an athletic team may move-in on days approved by their program supervisor or their coach. Residence Life will work with you to make sure you have access to your building. 

What if I need to move in early for traveling purposes or because I want extra time to move in?
Unfortunately, we are unable to allow residents to move in early if they are not sponsored by a college-sanctioned activity (see above) and thus supervised by a college employee. Residence Life staff is busy preparing for our new residents and is not on duty until Move-In Day, making it a security issue to have unsupervised students move in early. Our residents' safety is our first priority!
