Roommate Selection

Living with a roommate is just one of many new experiences waiting for you at college. They are someone with whom you can share not only your room but your �������� experience.

Choosing a roommate

You can live with a friend or meet someone new using ��������’s roommate search feature. When you apply for housing, we ask a series of questions about your living habits and interests. Those who opt-in for the roommate search future can then use the answers to any of those questions to get a list of possible roommates and their contact information.

Those who want to live with a friend can add their roommate to their Roommate Group at any time housing sign-up is live. Both parties need to have a completed housing application by Memorial Day.

Roommate search

Starting 10 a.m. EST April 1, those who opted in for roommates searches on the housing application can run their search. Search parameters include living habits, social habits, interest and hobbies or academic college. The Finder will generate a list of up to 25 potential roommates. You will see their roommate profile, age, academic major and �������� email address. Reach out and introduce yourself and see if you hit it off.

To use the Finder, log in to the  with your Bronco NetID. Select Residence Halls >> Roommate Finder. You will also see Roommate Group on that screen, which is how you link to your new roommate once you find them.

Once you’ve found a roommate, one of you will create a Roommate Group. Roommate Groups are how you and your roommate will get into the same room when you pick a hall and room in June.  

Roommate Groups

When you find someone you want to live with, one of you will create a Roommate Group in the housing portal. The group creator is the owner and can invite others to join the group. When you are invited to join a group, you can accept, decline or ignore the invitation. You may also leave a Roommate Group at any time if you meet someone new. Remember to keep an eye on your �������� email because all roommate notifications will come to this address.

To create a Roommate Group or reply to an invitation, log into the and select Residence Halls >> Roommate Group.

You’ll need your friend’s �������� Identification Number (WIN = 9-digit number) to create a group.  After you enter their WIN, 

1.  Press “Search” to find their name in the system,
2. &�Բ�����;“Select” to confirm it is the right person, and
3.  Press “Submit” at the bottom of the page to send the roommate group invitation email.

As the group owner, you will receive an email if they accept or decline the invitation. 

You can only own or be in one Roommate Group at a time and you can leave or disband a group whenever you want. Roommate groups are limited to 2 people. 

Roommate Groups are how you and your roommate will get into the same room regardless of your Room Selection Group dates. Whomever has the earlier date can find a room and reserve it for both of you. The roommate who does not choose the room will receive an email to their �������� account confirming their hall and room assignment.  The person who selects the room this will also choose the meal plan for both individuals, so be sure to talk about that in addition to what halls you want to live in before June.

For those who want to live with a friend, both parties need to have a completed housing application by Memorial Day.
