The deposit is non-refundable after July 1 of the summer prior to the upcoming fall term. 

Registration

Only students registered for the fall semester are eligible to participate in room draw. If a student is not registered, then that student and his/her roommate will not participate in room draw. There are no exceptions.

Roommate selection 
Students must have a roommate to participate in room draw. Students without a roommate at the time of room draw will not draw for a room. However, several options exist: 

  • Summer matching   
    • Students without a roommate will be matched in the summer with a transfer student or another returning student without a roommate. These students will not be able to participate in room draw.   
  • Other roommates   
    • Students who hope to room with someone who is not yet registered or with a first-year student next fall will participate in the selection process at a later time. Contact the director of residence life (x3247) for more information.
