Room Change

Room changes will take place from Monday, September 15, 2025 to Friday, October 3, 2025. Please note that submitting a Room Change application does NOT GUARANTEE a room change. To apply, head to your MyHousing portal and click on the Room Change application button.

Before Submitting a Room Change Application

You will have four options to choose from in the Room Change Application: Roommate Conflict, Financial Reason, Room Type/Location Change, or Other. Before submitting your application, please make sure you have reviewed and addressed the following:

If you select Financial Reason or Room Type/Location Change:

    • Review the cost differences of changing your room type or housing area.

If you select Roommate Conflict:

    • Complete a Roommate Agreement form (if you haven’t already).
    • Make a good faith effort to resolve any roommate conflicts.
    • Talk with your RA/CA and Residential Life Coordinator (RLC) about your reasons for wanting a room change, as they can help you address ongoing concerns while supporting you through the process.
