The priority on-campus housing sign-up deadline is June 10. Students may sign up for housing after this date, but may not have the same chances for their securing a room among their first choices of residence halls.
Housing assignments will be sent to the student’s UP email account in early July.
Please make sure to drag and drop ALL of your preferred residence hall choices from the left side column into the right side column in the order of your preference. It is important that you do not just select one or two favorite options. If those favorites are already full when the placement process gets to your application, you will be placed in a residence hall that has availability. By dragging and dropping ALL of your choices, you have more control over your placement. Please note that the co-ed halls are the most frequently selected top-choice residence halls. This means that some students may not be assigned a room in one of their top residence hall choices.
The Office of Residence Life is happy to accommodate any specific roommate requests from incoming students. Students can register these requests using the “my roommate profile,” “roommate search,” and “roommate groups” functions in eRezLife. All parties who wish to live together must register these requests in order to be placed together.
Answer all the questions on the application form honestly. These questions are designed to help you find a roommate who has similar preferences and habits as you do. For example, whether you prefer a tidy or messy living space, or if you are an early riser or not. Answering truthfully will help match you with a compatible roommate and avoid potential conflicts regarding your shared living space. Remember, your ‘home away from home’ should be a comfortable and welcoming environment.
The Office of Residence Life is open all summer and can be reached at reslife@up.edu Monday through Thursday from 8:30 to 4:30 and summer Fridays from 8:30 to 1:00 p.m.
We can’t wait to welcome you to campus!
