How do I find out who my roommate is?
Once Housing Application is processed you will see your Hall, Room Number, and Roommate details displayed on your Banner. Click the Student Tab and Scroll down to My Housing – on the screen under the Student Profile silhouette your messages will display. All assignments will be completed by the beginning of the semester informing you of your roommate's name and email address.
What happens if a resident does not get along with his/her roommate?
Living within your floor/suite community, you will find people who have a variety of backgrounds, values, and lifestyles. Students are encouraged to speak directly to roommates in sharing concerns, expressing feelings in an honest manner, and jointly negotiating a resolution to a conflict. On occasion, a student will attempt to resolve a problem, but his/her roommate is unresponsive. In these situations, students should seek the help of their Resident Assistant or Complex Director/Assistant Complex Director.
How can I change rooms?
We in the Residence Life Office believe in providing a comprehensive learning experience in all aspects of our student's lives. This includes the importance of communication and problem solving that comes with campus living and roommate conflict. We do not recommend or perform room changes without residents engaging in a series of mediations with their roommates and Residence Life staff. When students arrive on campus, they are instructed to complete a signed Roommate Agreement detailing their living preferences in a shared space. For further information, students can contact the RA on their floor.
All room/building changes are at the discretion of the Assistant Dean of Residence Life or their designee. Going through conversations regarding the process does not guarantee a room change.
Can I have overnight guests?
Yes, with the permission of your roommate. Guests may stay for up to 72 consecutive hours, but no more than a total of five days per month. Residents must register their overnight guests with their RA.
