Assignment Process
Assignments are made on a first come, first serve basis according to the date of deposit. Room assignments will be made after the department has received the housing application and a $100.00 deposit. No assignments will be made without a deposit. Residence Life will try to honor hall and roommate preference, however, we are unable to guarantee that all students will get their specified preference. Roommates must request each other on the application.
