InfoRoommate Not Guaranteed Through Online Room Selection
Participating in online room selection does not guarantee your choice of a specific residence hall, room type or roommate. For students who apply for housing after Feb. 2, HRC staff consider building preferences as listed on the application and prioritize assigning roommates together, as space permits. However, we cannot guarantee any building, room type or roommate.
