How to select a roommate:

1. Complete your housing license and dining application

• If you are under 18, a parental verification will be required for your app to be complete. Please make sure you add the right email address for your parent in the parent/ guardian contact info in your application

2. The day AFTER your application is complete, you will get a welcome email from a program called MyCollegeRoomie to your Buffalo State email!

• Your log in credentials for MCR are the same as you use for Degree Works or Blackboard. If you do not know those yet, please visit this site in IT for help: https://buffalostate.teamdynamix.com/TDClient/2003/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?...

3. Once you create a profile you can find a roommate one of two ways!

• Enter in the name and info for a specific person (they will need to create a profile on the site as well to find them)
• Fill out a questionnaire and the program will give you a list of potential matches that fit your criteria for you to start chats with and connect

4. After you match with someone on MCR, it will automatically tell our housing software

5. There is nothing left to do but wait for room assignments to come out in July! We do our very best to accommodate all roommate matches.
