Housing Hacks & Room Chats

Come hang out with us at our Housing Hacks and Room Chats. Whether you’re looking to switch things up, have concerns about your current space, or just want to talk through your options, our Housing staff is here to help. We’ll guide you through the room change process, offer tips on how to possibly find your ideal space, and answer any questions you have about roommates or room selection. This is your chance to get the answers you need in a relaxed, no-pressure setting. Grab a snack, share your thoughts, and let’s figure out how to make your housing experience work for you!

INFORMATION & SUPPORT
Information Sessions

Join us for an Information Session to learn how room selection works, get your questions answered by Housing staff, and enter for a chance to win priority room selection just for attending. This is a great opportunity to explore your housing options and get helpful tips to make the room selection process easier.

If you are unable to come to an in person information session, you can complete the online Returning Room Selection training at the link below to learn more about room selection and also for a chance to win priority room selection.

EXPLORING YOUR OPTIONS
Open House

Curious about what other residence halls have to offer? Here’s your chance to win priority room selection and attend an open house showcasing available second-year residence halls! To review details about the event, including which halls are available to view, visit our Open House website.

In the event of inclement weather, this event will be canceled.
