All housing processes will take place from The Housing Portal via myRedDragon. To access anything housing-related, complete the following steps:

1. Log in to your myRedDragon.
2. Select the “Student” tab.
3. Under Residence Life and Housing select “Housing Process and Information.”

Choose Your Room

1. On the main page of The Housing Director, scroll down to see the selection processes you are eligible for.
2. Each process will display a start date and time. This is when you will be able to choose your room.
3. If you are selecting with at least one other individual, the person with the earlier selection time can choose for all in the roommate group.
4. Select "Select a Room/Suite."
5. If you are in more than one process, you will choose the process you want to choose a room from.
6. Search for a room.
7. Select "Select Room" or "Select Suite."
8. Assign all individuals in your group to the beds and/or rooms.
9. Select "I Agree- submit my room selection."
10. Confirm your housing by viewing your assignment for Fall 2023 on the main page.

It is possible that someone else may choose your room/suite as you are selecting. If this happens, you will receive a message that this has happened. Search for another room.

The Housing Portal landing page:

View the selection processes you are eligible for and the start times.

Start times that are listed on this screen are when you will be able to begin selecting your housing assignment. Selection times (listed below your personal start time) is the period where that housing selection is available. You can review available rooms prior to your start time once the selection window has opened. You may be eligible for multiple selections which will appear as separate tabs on this screen.

Selecting a room:

Searching available rooms using no filters will show you all remaining spaces that are available during your housing selection process. Adding filters will narrow the search and may exclude available options.

For group selections: This screen allows the selector to place the correct roommates together within a quad/suite.

Your fall assignment will be viewable immediately after selection is complete.

Troubleshooting: if there are not any rooms to accommodate your group size; if process allows, return to beginning of selection and select your rooms not in a suite by dividing into subgroups
