  1. For Current Residents Step-By-Step Guide

  2. I am going to be a Sophomore and I would like to move off campus • Remember, Colorado Mesa University has a live on requirement for all Freshman and Sophomores that do not meet the qualifying criteria to live off campus. IF you meet these criteria, please submit a request for contract release. • The following exemptions allow for an automatic exemption to the residency policy upon completion of this request to Residence Life: • Students living in Mesa County, at the full-time established residence of a parent/legal guardian; • Students who are at least twenty one (21) years of age prior to the beginning of the subsequent fall or spring semester • If you do not meet this criteria, but still wish to live of campus, Login to MyHousing in the , select ApplyOnline, and fill out the “Sophomore Request for Permission to move off campus” application. • Requests are due by February 25th • Students will be granted permission in a randomized lottery process. If a student is not given permission to move off campus and does not select a room, they will be auto assigned a space at the end of the Sophomore room selection period.

  3. TWO MAIN STEPS • Decide where you want to live • Plan ahead for at least a 1st, 2nd and 3rdchoice!For example: • 1st choice: North Avenue Apt Single • If they are all taken... Do I try for a North Ave Suite Double or a Walnut Ridge Single? • 2nd choice: Walnut Ridge Single • What if they are all taken as well? • 3rd choice: Walnut Ridge Double 1 • Choose your roommates, suite/apartment-mates! • Review the Roommate Selection Guide • Set up your “Roommate Group” (if you have one) prior to the earliest lottery in which your group can participate. • Make sure everyone in your group has mutually requested each other so that you have a “fully matched” group. • Make sure you all agree on a plan! Which building, who goes in which room type within the suite, etc. • Remember, anyone you confirm as a mutual roommate can pull you in to a room! 2

  4. Choosing a New Room When you choose to select a new room, suite or apartment for the upcoming academic year during one of the New Room Selections. . . Be aware of your roommate requests. You plus your roommates cannot be greater than the total available spaces in the room, suite or apartment that you would like to select. Examples: You will not be shown any Rait double rooms if you have more than one roommate request. You will not be shown any North Ave suites or aparments if you have more than six roommate requests. If, after the previous lotteries, there are four (or less) beds left in any Orchard Ave suite you won’t be able to see any spaces in Orchard Ave if you plus your roommates is greater than four.
