The Room Selection process is proceeding as if we will be reunited on campus for the fall semester. However, on-campus housing decisions are subject to state, city, and University guidance and may change as public health recommendations evolve.
How Room Selection Works
Visit the Room Selection section of our site to learn more about how Room Selection works. We've made helpful videos with the Residence Hall Leadership Organization (RHLO) to explain the process.
What's New
In a year where many of our students couldn't be on campus to explore residence halls, we've brought the residence halls to you! Take a virtual tour of the residence halls popular among rising sophomores to learn more about each building's living spaces, rooms, and amenities.

Our ability to offer campus housing is contingent on New York State directives. Health guidance based on the evolving pandemic may result in changes to campus density for the fall semester. We appreciate your flexibility during this time.
