The returning student room selection process allows students to select their room assignment in upper-division designated communities for the upcoming academic year. Student participation in the returning student room selection process guarantees the student on-campus housing for the entire academic year. Students are bound to the terms of the Housing and Dining License for the full academic year.
Students who are not required to live on-campus should only participate in returning student room selection (Village Selection and Residence Hall Room Selection) if they are 100% sure they want to live on-campus for the entire upcoming academic year.
Please refer to the University Housing Policy for more information. SUNY Oswego students must adhere to this policy.

Submit a roommate request.

- Only students who have completed the Housing Application will be able to request or be requested as mates. Please note that mate-matching must be mutual to form a fully matched group. If your requested mate does not request you as their mate, you will not be able to select a room together.
- You will not be able to match with mates once you or your mate has been assigned to a room.
