How Room Change Requests Work
The process for changing rooms typically takes about five business days but may take longer, due to scheduling and email exchanges. We appreciate your patience.
Requests to move to a different quad or apartment complex take longer to facilitate (sometimes more than a week) than requests to move within your current quad or apartment complex.
Note: If you are in increased housing (increased triple) you do not need to fill out this form. A member of your living area staff will be reaching out to offer a room change as spaces become available.
Review our Room Rates page to determine if a move will change your housing costs.
Room change requests may be submitted as follows:
Fall 2024: Room change requests for the Fall 2024 semester must be submitted by 5 p.m. December 2, 2024.
Spring 2025: Room change requests for the Spring 2025 semester will open at 8 a.m. January 22, 2025.
Follow these instructions to request a room change:
Step 1: You request a room change

If you’re currently living on one of the Quads and want to move to another living area on campus please submit a Quad Room Change Form online. Residential Life staff will review your request and look for a new space.
If you’re currently living on one of the Quads and want to move to the University Apartments, please note there are eligibility requirements including at least 56 academic credits, or being at least 21 years old.

Step 2: Residential Life finds an available room
Once we’ve found an open space, we will notify any current residents via email that their room, suite or apartment that they will be getting a new roommate/suitemate in the next 24 to 48 hours.
Step 3: You accept or reject the offer
You must email our staff back within 24 hours to say whether you’d like to accept that assignment or move on to another option.
Step 4: You move in
If you accept the new room assignment, you and your new roommates/suitemates will be notified via email. You will have 48 hours to move out of your current room and then move into your new room.
