Room Draw, Spring 2025

Dear students,

As we near the end of the Fall semester, the housing team is actively preparing for on-campus housing next year. Room Draw for all students for the 2025-2026 academic year will kick off in just over a month, on January 15th. To help you prepare, we’re sending this overview of the Room Draw timeline which you will find below. You will continue to receive email correspondence from the Housing Office at key points throughout the Room Draw process. Please check your email regularly, as these notices will often include important and time-sensitive information related to Room Draw. Please also consider setting aside time to review the Undergraduate Housing website where you will find detailed information on Room Draw policies, processes, deadlines as well as answers to many of the questions you may have.
