Who will be my roommates?
As much as possible, roommates are assigned based on the common interests, program of study, and habits you indicate on your Residence Life and Housing application. But that doesn't mean that you'll live with other people who are exactly like you. So, come with an open mind and expect to meet great people, be challenged, learn about others, and have fun.
Is parking available?

If you are a qualified student who has a documented disability, as defined by the American with Disabilities Act of 1990, you may be eligible to receive reasonable and appropriate housing accommodations. You must first go through the enrollment process and apply for housing. Students who believe they are in need of accommodations should contact the Disability Services office.
How can I meet other Residence Life and Housing students?
The Resident Assistants (RAs) coordinate activities and programs every quarter to help residents get to know one another. You will receive a monthly calendar listing all of the month’s activities when you move in. You may also want to think about joining the Apartment Council if you would like to assist with planning activities for residents.
