Room Assignment and Roommate

Housing assignments and roommate pairings for new students to Curry College are based on information students provide on their Housing Application.  First-year students are generally assigned to our North Campus in any one our traditional residence halls. Roommates are encouraged to contact each other prior to arriving at Curry to make plans for the use of the room and to determine who will bring such large items such as a stereo, television, computer or refrigerator.

Returning students have the opportunity to select the hall, room and roommate for the next academic year through a room selection process that occurs in the spring semester.  The order of room selection is based on the class standing of the student and a randomly generated lottery number distributed to all students prior to room selection.

Eligibility

College Housing is provided for full-time (12 credit hours per term) undergraduate students. Resident students who remain enrolled at the College but drop below full-time status may petition to remain in housing. If the petition is approved, the resident remains responsible for the terms and conditions of the housing agreement. College Housing reserves the right to refuse housing accommodations to any student who has a College Student Conduct Code sanction suspending or denying the privilege of living in College Housing or delinquent accounts for housing related charges. College Housing may administratively move students as necessary in the Halls (see Assignments section below).

Assignments

Fall term room assignments for first-year students and transfer students are made based on the date of the application, responses given on the application, and return of the signed agreement.  While we make every effort to do so, College Housing cannot guarantee we will be able to meet all requests or guarantee compatible roommates. Behavior that deviates from information provided in the application may be grounds for relocation within the residence halls to a community that better suits the resident’s lifestyle.

If the applicant does not receive a Room assignment for fall term before leaving home and/or has concerns, please contact the Housing Office.

Administrative Assignments: College Housing reserves the right to make or change Room Assignments at any time based on administrative needs. This includes, but is not limited to, consolidation of space and/or sanctions as a result of conduct or Agreement violations.

Temporary Assignments: Late applicants may be assigned a temporary room until a permanent room is available. Furnishings may vary for facilities that are used temporarily to accommodate increased demand for housing. When a permanent room becomes available, residents agree to move within 36 hours of official notification. Residents assigned a temporary room will be charged the double room and board rate with their requested meal plan.
