Assignment Change Request Process

ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ in the residence halls may request a housing change both before and after move-in. The process to request a housing change before move-in is July 8-10. The request for a housing change after move-in opens Aug. 28. 

There is no charge associated with submitting a Housing Change Request, however if we are able to accommodate your request for a change in room type, your per semester cost may change. Please see our rates and contracts page for more information.

This process is available to students who have received their building assignment before the process closes.

  • ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ will not be contacted prior to a move. By submitting a request, students agree to a hall change if they are selected in the process. If a roommate has already been selected, this process will not included a change with a roommate. 
  • Hall changes through this process are considered by randomly selecting students with requests based on preferences, eligibility, and availability. University Housing will re-assign students to a new space if they are selected in the process.

University Housing tries to accommodate as many requests as possible, however, participation in the Housing Change Processes does not guarantee a room change and it does not include roommates. 

After move-in hall change process 

This process is available throughout the academic year. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ can request a change for when spaces become available. There is no timeline for when a change may be offered as housing is filled to capacity. ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ who join the waitlist in August; however, may not be contacted until mid or late semester about a change option. Waitlist status can be obtained after Sept. 9 by emailing UniversityHousing@colorado.edu. 

Room changes do not include roommates. If you are assigned to a new room, you will also be assigned new roommates (with the exception of individual room assignments).
