Our assignments area works year-long to ensure that room assignments are maintained. They also handle room changes, oversee the resident agreement process and facilitate the annual room selection process, an event intended for residents who wish to return to campus housing.
Building & Room Assignments
Housing assignments are processed based on the date the housing agreement was completed. Students have the opportunity to rank their preferences of building and room types. Building and room preferences are taken into consideration when housing assignments are made but are not guaranteed. Students may be assigned to any building or room type.
Converted housing and temporary housing assignments are also possible. Read more about these assignments here.
Roommate Assignments
Students who want to complete a roommate match must do so within their agreement. Incoming students will gain access to the Roommate Profile and Roommate Matching pages after they have been confirmed for housing. Roommate requests will be taken into consideration when assignments are made but are not guaranteed.
Roommate matches for incoming freshmen must be completed by May 1.
Roommate matches for incoming transfers must be completed by June 1.
Please note, students are not required to complete a roommate match. Those who do not will still have roommates, but those roommates will be assigned at random.
Housing Accommodations
DePaul Housing & Residence Life will make a good faith effort to provide housing that meets accommodation needs; however, availability is not guaranteed and potential options become more limited mid-year.
Housing accommodations will be considered based on recommendations from the Center for Students with Disabilities. To request housing accommodations due to a disability or medical condition, please contact the Center for Students with Disabilities at (773) 325-1677 or [email protected].
Students are encouraged to reach out to the Center for Students with Disabilities upon submission of their housing agreement. Students seeking housing accommodations should explore all available options, including off-campus housing resources, which can be found at https://offcampushousing.depaul.edu/.
Statement on Gender Identity
DePaul University respects the privacy of its students and recognizes that some students may be particularly concerned about privacy and confidentiality related to gender identity. DePaul Housing & Residence Life will consistently recognize and respect the gender identity that students self-identify to DePaul University in good-faith.
Students may self-identify to DePaul Housing & Residence Life if they wish to receive housing considerations regarding their gender identity, but are by no means obligated to do so. If students do self-identify and request considerations, we will not require students to provide more information than that which is required of other students. Furthermore, all information will be kept strictly confidential to the best of DePaul’s ability and will only be used for purposes designated by the student. Should you have questions or concerns regarding gender and DePaul Housing’s process, please email us at [email protected].
