Requesting/Selecting Roommate

The Returning Student Roommate Matching Process is now closed. 

The deadline to roommate match to participate in room selection was extended until April 3rd for returning students. After the deadline, students will only be able to mutually match during their Class Level Selection Round. Students are ineligible to match during Group, LLC, or separate Class Level Selection Rounds.

If you are interested in selecting specific students as your roommate(s), you must submit the request by: 

1. Logging into www.go.rowan.edu/myhousing
2. Then click, "Room Selection/Roommate Matching"
3. Click, “Select Roommate”
4. Select "Fall 202X" in the Term drop-down options 
5. Click on the "Search for Roommate" Tab
6. Enter the student's first and last name 
7. Review search results and select the correct student (results will only show students who have completed applications for the term)

If you are planning on mutually matching with individuals who have a different gender than you, all group members must ensure they are opted into gender-inclusive housing. All members should have selected "yes" for question 9 on the Housing Application & Intention Form. This confirms that you agree to live in a gender-inclusive housing option for Fall 202X - Spring 202X. If all group members have not opted in, you will not be permitted to select together during room selection.

 Can't find your eligible roommate match? Be sure you and your desired roommates' profiles are public. 

• Go to "Personal Information"
• Select "Roommate Profile"
• Under "Profile Privacy" ensure that "Do Not Display Me" is not selected

You may also search for potential roommates by searching for specific criteria entered on the housing application. To use this method:

1. Follow steps 1-5 above
2. Search for students based on application preferences
3. Review search results and select the desired student(s)

Be sure to accept/deny any pending roommate matching requests. Roommate matches must be mutual to be honored during room selection.

Students who do not select a roommate match will be paired up randomly with other students who share like interests and did not match.

Credit Hours and Roommate Matching:

When determining class standing for the Room Selection process, we take into account the credits that you have already earned as well as the credits you are currently enrolled in for the spring term. Summer course enrollment is not taken into consideration in this process.

Students will receive an appointment time for room selection based on the person with the lowest class standing in their group. For example, a group of 4 matched senior students will receive appointment times during the “senior” selection date, whereas a matched group of 3 seniors and 1 sophomore will receive appointment times during the “sophomore” selection dates. Please keep this in mind when determining who you will be forming a matched group with.

-Students with 0-57 credits are considered “sophomores”.

-Students with 58-89 credits are considered “juniors”.

-Students with 90+ credits are considered “seniors”.​
