When you log into the housing portal to reapply for housing, there is a step called Roommate Search/Selection. You can use this step to search for potential roommates, request roommates, and accept/decline roommate requests. You can also send messages to potential roommates. Note that roommate requests have to be accepted prior to being able to place them in a room with you. During your designated room selection time, you will be able to select spaces for yourself and any accepted roommates (they must also be eligible to live in that hall if any credit hour restrictions). You will be able to place as many roommates as will fill the space in the unit – for example, invite up to three other students to live with you in a Pine Ridge apartment or Gabaldon suite; or invite one other student to live with you in a Morton double room.

Search for Roommates:
There are three options to use to search for potential roommates.

1. Search by Details - To find a roommate you already know, you will need that student’s User ID (i.e. abc123) and correct spelling of his/her last name. The student has to also have a completed app in the system. After entering the student’s information, you will see his/her web screen name and the options to request, view his/her profile or send a message. Click on “Request” to invite that student to be your roommate. Your roommate can then log into the portal to accept or decline your request.
2. Browse Matching Roommates - To look for potential new roommates, you can browse the best-matched roommates. When you log into reapply for housing, you will be asked a series of eight lifestyle profile questions. Based on your responses, the system will display your best-matched potential roommates. The percentage listed next to each student’s web screen name shows you how matched you are, so the higher the percentage, the better potential match you are. Click on View Profile under the web screen names to review each student’s answers to the lifestyle profile questions. If you find someone you’d like to invite to be your roommate, click on Request under that person’s web screen name.
3. Search by Profile - Using this tool, you can search for potential roommates by lifestyle profile question. For example if you want to find other students who typically go to sleep after 2am, you could select the “sleeping habits” question and search for matching roommates who answered that question the same way as you. Click on View Profile under the web screen names to review each student’s answers to the lifestyle profile questions. If you find someone you’d like to invite to be your roommate, click on Request under that person’s web screen name.

Be sure that your roommate request is accepted PRIOR to your room selection time. You will only be able to pull-in and place your roommate at the time you initially select your room. If you select your room without placing your roommate at that time, you will NOT be able to add them to your room at a later time.

Steps to placing a roommate: 

1. Request your roommate(s) using the options listed above.
2. Your roommate(s) must accept your request PRIOR to your room selection time.
3. At your assigned room selection time, search for a room that has enough spaces available to accommodate you and your roommate(s).
4. When you select that room, the system will ask you to select a bed space for and then to select a bed space for your roommate(s).
5. Once you place you and your roommate(s) and reserve the beds, you will see your confirmed assignment.
6. At that point if you have placed your roommate, your roommate does not have to do anything else. If your roommate logs into the portal, s/he will see the room assignment on the application status step.

Note: if you have an accepted roommate request, but do not place your roommate(s) at the time of room selection, your roommate(s) will not have an assignment. They will have to select their own room. If you do not plan to live with an accepted roommate anymore, please cancel your roommate request through the portal.

If you have already selected your room, but later want to live with a specific roommate, you will need to take one of the following actions based on space availability.

Log into the portal to see if the other space in your selected room is still open.  If the space is available, then do one of the following:

1. If the space is open and your roommate’s designated room selection time is current, then the roommate can just select that space.
2. If the space is open, but your roommate’s room selection time has not yet occurred, then you would have to first be sure that your roommate request is accepted. Once accepted, you would then use the Cancel Room Assignment step to first cancel your current room. The Room Selection step will then open for you. Use Room Selection to then select your room. The system will ask you to select a bed space for yourself and then for your roommate(s). Once you reserve the beds you will see the confirmed assignment on your Application Status page.

If the other space in your room is no longer available, but you would like to live with your roommate elsewhere then do one of the following:

1. First be sure your roommate request has been accepted. Once accepted, use the View Available Rooms step to see what space is available. If you find a room with enough bed spaces available to accommodate you and your roommate(s), then you would use the Cancel Room Assignment step to first cancel your current room.  The Room Selection step will then open for you. Use Room Selection to then select the new room. The system will ask you to select a bed space for yourself and then for your roommate(s). Once you reserve the beds you will see the confirmed assignment on your Application Status page.
2. If you do not find any rooms with enough bed spaces available to accommodate you and your roommate(s), note that available space will continue to change as students select spaces and cancel spaces, so you can check back anytime through May 10 during Reapplication. You can also continue to watch available space and change rooms over the summer through early July. In the meantime, your roommate should select a room during his/her room selection time in order to live on campus. Then if you later find a room with enough bed spaces, both of you would need to first cancel current room assignments before selecting a new room. 

Please keep in mind that the available space is shown in real time, so there is a chance that someone else will select your desired new space while you are cancelling your current room assignment.  

Yes – during your designated room selection time, you will be able to select the space of your choice. The system shows you all available space you are eligible for in real time. Once you select a space (and any space for accepted roommates) you are confirmed for that space and it will not be available for others from that point on, unless you later cancelled.

If your roommate places you in a space, you will be able to immediately see your confirmed assignment when you log into the housing portal.

If you currently live in an upper-division residence hall, you will have the first priority to selecting your current room for next year. 

Step 1:  Complete your online application through the housing portal at nau.edu/reapp starting March 1. You must have a completed application in order to later select your room.

Step 2:  Log into the housing portal to select your room during the Same Hall/Same Room process:

• McKay, Pine Ridge, and Campus Heights – March 4-5
• Gabaldon, Aspen Crossing, Raymond, McDonald, Gillenwater, Roseberry, Mountain View, Taylor, Campbell and Morton – March 26-28

When you log in, you will see a step called Renew Current Room that will allow you to select your current space. You will also be able to place accepted roommates into the remaining space. Please note that current residents have priority during Same Hall/Same Room. If you pull a new roommate into that space, but your current roommate wants to reapply to the room, then your new roommate will have to select a different available room.  

If you currently live in an upper-division residence hall, you will be able to select a different room in your current hall for next year during the Same Hall/Different Room process: 

Step 1:  Complete your online application through the housing portal at nau.edu/reapp starting March 1. You must have a completed application in order to later select your room.

Step 2:  Log into the housing portal to select your room during the Same Hall/ Different Room process:

• McKay, Pine Ridge, and Campus Heights – March 6-7
• Gabaldon, Aspen Crossing, Raymond, McDonald, Gillenwater, Roseberry, Mountain View, Taylor, Campbell and Morton – April 2-4

When you log in, you will see a step called Renew Current Building that will allow you to select a new room in your current residence hall. You will also be able to place accepted roommates into the remaining space.

If you currently live in a Freshman Connections hall, Tinsley Hall, or you want to move to a different hall, you will select a room during the Different Hall process:

Step 1: Complete your online application through the housing portal at nau.edu/reapp starting March 1. You must have a completed application in order to later select your room.

Step 2: Log into the housing portal to select your room during the Different Hall process. You will be assigned a starting date/time based on your date of application. So the earlier you complete your online application, the earlier your assigned room selection time will be. Your assigned time fall within the following dates:

• Students eligible for McKay, Pine Ridge, and Campus Heights – March 11-15
• All other students, and those who want to reapply to all other upper-division halls – April 9-May 10

When you log in at your assigned room selection time, or anytime after through May 10, you will see a step called Room Selection that will allow you to select a room in a different residence hall. You will also be able to place accepted roommates into the remaining space. When you go to the Room Selection step, you will be able to search available space by residence hall, floor level, apartment/suite, and room. Please note that not using any filters will show you the largest variety of space available.

When you click on an open space, you will be able to view how many total spaces are in that room/suite/apartment and how many of those spaces remain open. You will also be able to view the age and profiles of the other students who already selected the other spaces in that unit.

Yes. If you lived on campus for the Fall 2012 semester and study abroad for Spring 2013 you are eligible for Reapplication.  Please contact our office at Residence.Life@nau.edu or 928-523-3978 if you are interested in reapplying for 2013-2014.  We will provide you detailed directions for how to reapply once you notify us of your interest. 

This also applies to students completing approved non-local credit-bearing internships.

The Reapplication process is open from March 1 through May 10, 2013 so you have plenty of time to decide to return to campus. In addition, there is no risk to you by completing an application online. If you later cancel, you will be charged a cancellation fee ONLY if you have selected a room, or an accepted roommate has placed you in a room.

If you have not yet selected a room before you cancel your contract (or an accepted roommate has not placed you in a room), you will NOT be charged a cancellation fee.

If you later cancel your contract, and have already selected a space (or have been placed by an accepted roommate) you will be charged a cancellation fee:

Cancel by May 15 - $500 cancellation fee
Cancel between May 16- June 30 - $750 cancellation fee
Cancel on or after July 1 - $1000 cancellation fee

Please note that canceling your contract is not the same as canceling your room assignment.  If you only cancel your room assignment and select a new space, you will not be charged.

Tinsley Hall
Tinsley Hall will be a Freshman Connections Hall for 2013-2014. Students currently living in Tinsley will need to participate in the Different Hall process to reapply. Tinsley will not be available during the Same Hall/Same Room or Same Hall/Different Room processes.

McKay Village/Pine Ridge Village/Campus Heights
The credit hour requirement to live in these halls will move from 60+ credit hours to 30+ credit hours for 2013-2014. To be eligible to reapply to these halls, you must have at least 30 credit hours (NAU earned + spring-enrolled hours) on your NAU transcript by March 1.

Roseberry
Roseberry will become a co-ed hall for 2013-2014, so men and women will be eligible to reapply for Roseberry.
