Singles are harder to get into, but they aren't impossible. Usually the waiting list has 40-50 names on it. This often happens because students moving off campus want to make sure they can secure their living arrangements before giving up their room. For students without roommates at sign-up time, there is the roommate connection program, which is in its 10th year. This program allows students without roommates to meet others in their situation in the hopes of finding a roommate.
Students can check their compatibility through interest surveys and meet new people.
Several students cancel their room contracts every year. If a student cancels, a guarantee is made that his or her roommate will remain in the same hall but not necessarily on the same floor. A lottery system is used for students wanting to live in a single room in a different hall, a new single room or a double room in a different hall. If a student is interested in living with a new international student next year, they need to see Wise for an interview. Back to the front page.
