Students can request a room change at select times of the year by completing a Room Change Request Form on their Housing Portal. Students are not guaranteed to be approved for a room change, or they may be required to complete additional steps before they are approved. An example would be completing a roommate mediation with a Residence Life staff member.
Room Type Availability:
Generally, students should expect that unless they have an approved accommodation for a single room, they will only be offered multiple-occupancy room options that already have at least one person in the room. Multiple-occupancy rooms are rooms that can house multiple students such as doubles, triples, and quads.
Room Change Freeze Periods:
At certain times during the year, Residence Life will implement a “Room Change Freeze.” During this period, the Room Change Request Form will be closed, and room change requests will generally not be processed except in special circumstances. Students are encouraged to monitor emails from Residence Life for advance notice of an upcoming Room Change Freeze, allowing them to submit a request before the freeze begins.

Costs
Requesting a room change is at no cost. However, depending on where a student is moving, there may be an increase in their housing bill. For any additional charge amounts, please see the room rates on the Living on Campus webpage linked above.
