Roommate Groups FAQs:
Roommate groups strongly encouraged, but are not required. You will still be able to select housing without a roommate group. If you select a bed in a shared room, suite, or apartment, other students will be able to select the open beds. If you select a private room in the dorms, no one else will be in your room.
You will be able to create and edit roommate groups during the housing selection process, but doing so will affect your selection time and room options.
*All members must request and accept each other.
Selection times are based off of completed credit hours. Roommate groups' times will be based on the roommate with the most hours.
