My group was disbanded and now I must regroup. How can I see what suite sizes are still available?
Students of disbanded groups can log onto the Housing Portal to see available undersubscribed suite configurations as well as other students who are participating in regrouping.
My friend missed the intent deadline. Can I still add them to my group?
No. Students who missed the intent deadline cannot participate in the housing process and so, do not have access to the room draw housing portal. Once room selection has concluded for participating students, any remaining beds may be offered to students who requested housing on a first-come, first-served basis. Housing placements will begin in April once room selection has concluded.
I don’t see a placeholder student available on the regrouping portal. Can I request to have one added to my group?
Students should make every effort to work with the other students participating in regrouping to fill their suite accordingly. Students can utilize the search functions in the portal to help find students still needing to join a group. Placeholders will only come into play if students are truly unable to fill a suite due to there not being enough students to fill the group.
What happens if I’m in a group size that’s oversubscribed at the end of regrouping?
If there are group sizes that remain oversubscribed after regrouping closes, a pre-lottery will take place and groups will be randomly disbanded.
- For sophomores, students who are disbanded after regrouping will be randomly assigned to available beds in their college draw after room selection has concluded.
- For juniors and seniors, students who are disbanded will be designated as off-campus. Juniors and seniors who are designated as off-campus can opt to join the assignment pending list, through the request housing process in the portal, if they still wish to live on-campus.
What happens if I am not able to fill my group by the regrouping deadline? Will I have to live off-campus?
Students should make every effort to fill their groups with other students participating in regrouping. Students can utilize the search functions in the portal to help find students still needing to join a group.
Students who take every action to follow the process and form a group to the best of their ability will not be forced off-campus because there are not enough students to fill the group. In those instances, placeholders will be slotted into the group to be later filled by a transfer, waitlist, or reinstated student. However, students must form into a group size that remains available and undersubscribed in their draw.
I missed the deadline to regroup. What can I do?
Any student who is not part of a group when regrouping closes will not be able to proceed in the housing selection process and can opt to join the housing waitlist via the Housing Portal.
- For sophomores, students who are disbanded due to inaction or invalid group size at the end of regrouping will be randomly assigned to available beds in their college after room selection has concluded.
Regrouping has ended and my roommate has decided to live off-campus, can I still go through the lottery and room selection process?
If a member of your group requests to be removed from the room draw process after regrouping has closed, the housing team will take steps to ensure all suites are fully filled. This may mean that a group is redesignated to the correct group size (ie a quad that loses a member may be designated as a triple) if possible. Or, a “placeholder” may be added to the group so that the number of assigned members aligns with the original group size. After room selection has concluded for participating students, this spot will then be filled by the Housing Office with an incoming transfer student, reinstated student, or a student who opted out of grouping.
