(University Housing will communicate throughout the summer and INTO THE ACADEMIC YEAR with you via your student WOU email address and\u00a0 your Housing Overview. Get in the habit NOW of checking both for important information that will impact your housing.)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

March \/ April<\/span><\/h2>\n

After you receive your confirmation email, we will start our “conversation” with you by getting you information and links for My College Roomie – our roommate matching program to search for and connect with your perfect roommate(s)!
\nExpect the Roommate Selection to get underway in July of this year and the Housing Selection piece to follow shortly after that\u00a0 – also in July.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Spring eMail<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

May marks the continuation of the “conversation” that we started with all of our students who have completed the housing reservation process.<\/p>\n

Look for this important Spring Email with information to access online, to be delivered to your WOU email<\/strong> by late May<\/span>.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

July<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

July is Selection month. New Incoming students will be choosing roommates as well as the space that they will live in for the coming year throughout this month and into August. A broad outline is below. For details – including this year’s timeline –\u00a0 on the Housing Selection process for New Incoming students, please see: Housing Selection Details<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
    \n
  • Look for an emailed invitation (through your WOU email) from My College Roomie (MCR) in early July to access their program, fill out a profile and then find and match with your chosen roommate(s). Matched roommates in MCR will roll overnight into our housing system setting you up to pull your matched roommates into your room selection or to be pulled into a room selection by your matched roommate later in July when Housing Selection will begin.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • We will send out a reminder email , but you can start checking your Housing Overview page in late July. <\/span>\u00a0Once start date\/times are posted – PLAN AHEAD – so that you (or the person in your group with the earliest start date\/time) can access the system asap after your start time rolls around. The sooner you login and choose, the less competition you will have for the space you want!<\/span><\/em><\/b><\/li>\n
