Roommate Matching
In order for roommates and suitemates to be placed together, all involved students must have a completed housing application.
Roommate and Suitemate matching will take precedence over hall and room preferences.
After the roommate selection portal closes Housing and Residence Life is unable to guarantee roommate and suitemate assignments.
