Housing Selection is the process by which our current Deacs select their housing for the following semester or academic year! The selection process allows students to pair up with roommate groups and from there select housing based on their roommate group size.

Spring 2025 Housing Selection

Students abroad for the Fall 2024 semester will participate in our Spring Only Housing Selection process.


2025-2026 Housing Selection

The Housing Application for the 2025-2026 academic year will open in January 2025 via the Housing Portal and is the first step students will take in the selection process. The application also offers the opportunity for students to start thinking early about their living plans for next year according to their class year and, therefore, residency requirements before selection.

As you plan, be sure to review the important information below regarding housing for the 2025-2026 academic year, including a change to our past selection process regarding selection times and important dates to add to your calendar. We encourage you to check back here regularly for updates, including dates for Housing Selection Information Sessions in the Spring!

Important Note:

As a reminder, in the past, selection times were based on the EARLIEST selection time assigned to the group, and selection times were assigned based on the individual’s housing credits.

Beginning with the 2024-25 Housing Selection, selection times will now be assigned based on a roommate group’s AVERAGE housing credits.

*Please note that we recommend using a pencil, not a pen, when adding these dates to your calendar. Though we’ve taken a great deal to provide accuracy for the upcoming year, dates are subject to change as needed should institutional changes impact the 24-25 academic year dates. Check back here regularly as we near key dates and deadlines, and be sure to check your WFU email for the most updated information.
