Choosing your room
Students with a completed housing contract self-select their residence hall, room and meal plan in early June. In late May we email your WMU address with your assigned date and time to choose your room. All students are entered into a lottery to determine the order they choose their room in early June.
Login to the . Choose Residence Halls >> Fall + Spring Residence Hall and Meal Plan Selection. Selecting a hall, floor and bed is similar to how you would choose a seat for a concert on StubHub or Ticketmaster. Available halls, floors and rooms will be outlined in green. Open beds are in green or show as an open circle.
- Beds with an X or solid dot are already occupied.
- If you click on beds with an X, you can see the person鈥檚 age, college and roommate profile.
- The total number of beds in a room equals the room type 鈥 single or double. Single rooms are a higher rate.
Suites are shown on the map with a shared bathroom between them. Suites are female, male and all-gender. You must opt in to all-gender suites.
