UCA Housing Room Change Policy:
Residents who want to change their housing assignment need to visit with their Residence Coordinator.
Room changes are offered after the first week of class. In the case of a roommate conflict, the RA and/or RC may require mediation before a room change will be considered.
The Housing & Residence Life Office reserves the right to move students as necessary. If a student loses a roommate during the year, Housing reserves the right to assign another student to that space without prior notification. The University also has the right to relocate students at any time for any reason.
Room Consolidations and Buyouts
Usually, after the first 10 days of classes, we will begin room consolidations and buyouts. This is after we have identified those students who did not show up and we had given assignments. If you had a roommate who was one of these students, you will be given the choice to either find another roommate or buy out the room. If you choose to buy the room out, you will be charged a fee to keep the room just to yourself.
If you decide that you would like a roommate you have options.
- You can find your own roommate to move into your room
- You can move into a new room with your chosen roommate
- You can have us assign you a roommate
