Room Assignments and Selection

Fall/Spring Room Assignments

Students who complete a housing contract, pay an Admissions deposit and complete registration for orientation by the published dates, will receive more information about housing assignments in early July. Rooms will be allocated in contract number order based on the building and room type preferences provided by the student. Remember that if you mutually select a roommate on your housing contract, you and your roommate will receive an assignment at the later/higher of your two contract numbers. Assignment in a building and/or room type that is not your preference is not grounds for cancellation/termination of this contract.

Rental rates vary by building and room type. Our rental rate chart is available on our website.

Your Room Assignment

Room Type Preferences

You will list and room type preferences on your housing portal. Housing staff will assign you to your room. Most students should expect to be assigned to a shared bedroom space that shares a bathroom with an adjoining room. Your assignment information will be available on the housing portal in mid-June for Summer B, and early July for Fall/Spring. We have many types of buildings, room types, and programs. You are encouraged to research options and call us with questions. When you select room type preferences, you will be asked to rank several different room types.

Special Considerations:

  • Landis Hall is only available for students that have been admitted to the FSU Honors Program. Students in the Honors program will also have priority for spaces in Jennie Murphree hall.
  • A separate Living-Learning Community (LLC) application is required for the LLC programs in these buildings:
    • Azalea, Bryan, Cawthon, Deviney, Dorman, Magnolia, Reynolds, and Wildwood Halls house LLCs on 1-2 floors. The remaining spaces in these buildings are for residents who are not participating in an LLC.
  • If you have the Florida Prepaid Housing Plan, it will pay, in full, the rent for a suite-style double room with shared bathroom. If you have an assignment in a room type that is more expensive than what Florida Prepaid will cover, you will be responsible for the difference.

Buildings/Complexes

Azalea, Deviney, Dorman, Magnolia- These 4 halls are very similar and located in close proximity to each other.

Historic Halls- (Broward, Bryan, Cawthon, Gilchrist, Jennie Murphree, Reynolds). These six halls are very similar and located close to each other. Honors students will have priority for Jennie Murphree, non-honors students will be assigned there on a space-available basis.

Honors Halls- Landis and Jennie Murphree halls. Students in the Honors program are given priority for these halls, if you list a preference for Honors housing. Spaces in Landis will be filled first, and spaces in Jennie Murphree will be used after Landis is fully assigned. Non-Honors roommate requests can only be considered for Jennie Murphree, if space is available.
