Fall 2007 Roommate Connection
IMPORTANT - To receive an assignment, students must be accepted to the university and must have completed the residence hall application process for Fall 2007 . In addition, roommate request takes priority over hall preference. Therefore, if you are an upper-class student, have made a request for a specific hall and you submit a roommate request, you may be assigned to a hall not listed as a preference in order to satisfy the roommate.
