Step Two (Optional): Create a Roommate Group

1. After you complete your application, on the left side of the screen, click Roommate Groups.
2. Click the link to create a new roommate group. Give the group a name, and add roommates using their email addresses. You must have the exact email address that is listed in their eRezLife application, they must have completed an application for 2024-2025, and they must be the same gender.
3. Click save.
4. Once the roommate group is created, all group members must select the specific group as “my choice” to pull one another into a room or suite during room selection
5. If you do not create a roommate group or choose a group to be "my choice" you will be matched with a roommate after room selection ends.

You will not be able to select these rooms during the room selection process. Be sure to sign up for a double room while your single request is being processed to ensure you have a space on campus.
