Committed Students

Placement of new students will begin immediately following the summer pre-registration day in June and letters will be emailed to your Thomas and Personal email address on file with your placement and roommate information. Your date of the Housing Deposit is an important factor considered when filling housing requests.

Once you have access to the Onboarding Checklist, please fill out the Lifestyle Questionnaire as soon as possible so that we can work to match you with a roommate and a residential area that best meets your needs. If you know of another student you would like to live with, you’ll have the option to enter the person’s name on the questionnaire. We do our best to accommodate requests; however, all requests cannot be guaranteed. Please note that in order for us to match you with a requested roommate, both students need to request each other on the questionnaire. All placements are final, and we make every attempt to minimize changes after information is sent to students. If there are changes that need to be made, you will be notified via e-mail or phone.

First-year students are placed in either Grant, Parks, Heath (GPH) or Hinman Residence Halls. Students who are transferring with 30 or more credits will be placed in upper-class residences (Bartlett, Village, Townhouse or GPH Residences) as space is available.

• After being accepted to Thomas, pay your Housing Deposit with the Student Financial Aid Office.
• Complete your Housing Agreement (when available in the Onboarding Checklist).
• Fill out the online Lifestyle Questionnaire (when available in the Onboarding Checklist) ASAP.
• Start reviewing the list of items to bring and to leave at home. (Refrigerators up to 3.1 cubic feet are permitted in the residences. Please do not pack any refrigerators larger than this size.)
• Contact your new roommate by calling or sending them an email. Don’t rely on Facebook or other social media sites to meet your new roommate.
• Get ready for Orientation and check in with the Residential Life staff as needed.
