All students who have completed the housing application, signed their Room and Meal Plan Agreement, and confirmed enrollment with UND will be included in the first round of Room Selection. Room selection times are given based on the original date of application.

Verify Completion of the Following

• Confirm Enrollment at UND (if applicable)
• Select Roommates and ensure that any roommate groups are fully matched.
• Explore Housing Options

Application Changes Deadline

Students will need to make any updates to their application by this date. Any updates to the application will not change the original application date. Any roommate matches made after this date may not be processed.

Graduate & Transfer Students Only

New graduate and transfer students who have applied to live in Apartment-Style Housing will be able to select their room.

Living Learning Communitites

Students who have indicated interest in and have been verified as eligible for a learning community will be assigned a room during this time. Students who did not indicate interest in a learning community or do not receive a room assignment during this process will participate in New Student Room Selection. Students wanting to be included in the LLC Room Assignment Process must have indicated their preference on their housing application prior to the priority deadline.

Students who are eligible and have been pre-selected to live in a Living Learning Community (LLC) will be assigned to a room.

• Assignments for each LLC will be made according to date housing application was received.
• Students may only be assigned to a LLC if they meet the eligibility for the LLC and have indicated interest in living on the LLC.
• Matched roommate groups will be assigned together only if all members of the matched roommate group meet the criteria for the LLC.
• Groups in which all students do not meet the LLC criteria will not be assigned as part of the LLC Room Assignment Process and will select a room during the Room Selection Process.
• Not all students that request a LLC will receive an assignment on an LLC as demand in some communities is greater that the capacity.
• Students who receive an assignment in the LLC Room Assignment Process will not participate in the Room Selection Process, but will have the opportunity to change rooms in the Room Change Processes.

Athletics

Housing & Residence Life makes assignments for athletes based on the information that is shared from Athletics. Athletes should ask their coach for more information about housing for athlets. 

All students who have completed their housing application, signed their Residence Hall Room & Meal Plan License Agreement, and confirmed their enrollment to UND prior to the priority deadline will have the opportunity to participate in the room selection process. Any student included in this process that does not select a room will be automatically assigned a room prior to June 15. Students will be able to view their room assignments in Housing Self Service.

The majority of new students will participate in the Room Selection Process, where they will be able to select from all available rooms at their room selection start time. Here's what you need to know:

• Review the room selection process instructions prior to your selection time.
• Participating students will receive a start date and time based on when their housing application was submitted. The earlier your application was submitted the earlier your room selection start time.
• Start times will be spaced 1 minute apart. Students are encouraged to select a room as soon as they are able in order to maximize the room choices available. Once a student’s start time has passed, the student may select a room at any time before the end of Room Selection.
• Room Selection start times will be emailed to the student's UND email and will also be available in Housing Self Service. Please visit Housing Self Service in advance of your start time so you may troubleshoot any access problems.
• Students selecting a room will only see open rooms for which they are eligible.
• Students in a roommate group will only see rooms that can accommodate the size of the roommate group. If no rooms are available, try removing members from the roommate group and search again.
• Students who have matched with a roommate group will be able to select room(s) for everyone in the roommate group.
• Students who have not chosen a roommate group will select from available open bed spaces. Students will have to select a space that may already have someone assigned to the room.
• Once a selection has been made, no changes or other selections can be made. Students will have the opportunity to look for a different room in the Room Change Process.

All students who have completed their housing application, signed their Residence Hall Room & Meal Plan License Agreement, and confirmed their enrollment to UND from March 2 until April 25 will have the opportunity to participate in the room selection process.

Students Who Did Not Self Select

All students who completed the housing application and confirmed their enrollment to UND but did not self-select their room will have an assignment made for them.

Applications Received after May 15

Students who complete an application after May 15 will be given a housing assignment. Assignments will be made weekly by the Housing & Residence Life Office. Students will then be eligible to participate in the Room Change Processes.

Make Room Changes

Students who have received a room assignment will be able to use the Room Change Process to look for other available rooms.

All students with a room assignment will be able to participate in the Room Change Process.

• Students will be able to select from any open spaces.
• Students may only select a space for themselves.
• Any roommates that want to move will need to make their own room selection.
• Room changes can be made multiple times during the room change process.
• Students are encouraged to check back if a specific space they are looking for is not currently available. Additional spaces may open up throughout the summer as students make changes or no longer plan to attend UND.

Prior to June 30 students can select their own dining plan in Housing Self Service. If students need to change their dining plan after June 30, please contact the Housing  & Residence Life Office at housing@UND.edu.
