Yes, we aim to pair first-year students with first-year students.

Typically, we try to match students that are new with other new students, but depending on availability of space, a transfer student, based on their preference, could be matched with a returning upper-class student.

First-year students are assigned rooms in a first-year building. A room selection process takes place every spring semester for returning students, where they have the chance to choose their room or building based on the Priority Points system.

Housing applications are available on eRezLife in April and are due back by June 1. Once a student has completed their application, they are asked to select or search for a roommate on eRezLife. Room assignments will be completed in July for applications submitted by June 1.
