Your Room and Responsibilities When and How Room and Roommate Assignments Are Made A standard occupancy room, designed for either two or three individuals, is guaranteed to those students who deposited on or prior to May 1. Housing deposits will continue to be received after the due date; however, housing will be assigned on a space-available basis. Students will be housed by Orientation Session (with roommate requests taking precedence). Hawk Hall Residential Learning Communities are confirmed prior to the first orientation session. Applications received after the priority deadline of May 5 will be considered once there is an open spot within a community. New students can request roommates; however, consideration will only be given to requests that are mutually accepted. Only mutual requests and acceptances made through the housing application will be considered. In addition, all requests must be made and accepted by June 20. A roommate request is not required and our assignments team will assign a roommate based on the answers to the profile questions.
