Room Changes If you are experiencing a roommate conflict, please contact your Community Assistant (CA) or Building Director for assistance in resolving the issue. A room change will not be considered until the conflict has been addressed with Residence Life staff. Residence Life staff are available to assist with mediation; however, residents are also encouraged to resolve concerns among themselves. If conflict resolution efforts are unsuccessful with Residence Life staff, the student initiating the request may be granted a room change, subject to space availability. All room changes are subject to approval by Housing and Residence Life. When a request is approved by the Housing and Residence Life Office, residents changing their housing assignment must complete a Room Change Request online. Students who change rooms without authorization may be subject to disciplinary action and will be required to move back to their assigned space. Please note that room changes are not permitted during the first two weeks of each semester, as a room change freeze is in effect during this period. Room Vacancy Residents who live in a double or triple and are missing a roommate are expected to keep the uninhabited part of the room clear so that the room is ready for another resident to move in at any time.
