Students with active housing contracts for 2023-2024

How do I select my roommate?  

If you have other students that you want to live with, you will have to create a roommate group before room selection. All roommate groups must be of the same legal sex unless requesting gender-inclusive housing.  

Roommate groups are composed of a leader and members. The leader is the person that creates the roommate group and sends invites to students they would like in their roommate group.  

To do so, 

  • The leader will need to know the TU ID numbers of the students they would like in a roommate group. 
  •  Once a student accepts the invite, they will become a member of that leader's roommate group.  
  • To accept or deny a roommate group invitation, visit the student housing gateway and click on “roommate groups”.  
  • The leader can use that same link to add or remove members of the roommate group. 

There is no need to create a roommate group for yourself if you are not looking for a roommate. You can only be a member of ONE roommate group. Only students with a signed contract and paid deposit for 2023-2024 will be able to be pulled into a roommate group.

Frequently Asked Questions

You can submit a housing deposit deferral via the student housing gatewayby submitting a copy of your FAFSA student aid report once the deposit process opens. This option is only available for students currently living on campus. Typically, if you submit a housing deposit and remain in housing for the full academic year your deposit is deducted from your spring housing bill. By submitting a deferral, you will owe the full housing charge for the spring term. If you cancel your contract before the beginning of the spring term you will be charged the $350 for the housing deposit.  

 

Applications are due by April 1, 2023 and can be found under Additional Housing Options at towson.edu/housing.

If students decide to move off campus, they will be eligible to move back on-campus for spring 2024 pending housing availability. Please contact Housing & Residence Life if you have questions about availability.

Current residents will participate in room selection from April 3 through April 14 to select their space in credit order based on credits earned as of the end of Fall 2022. Current residents will be able to select from any space available on campus. Incoming first time freshmen are not eligible to live in the apartments.

If you have other students that you want to live with, you will have to create a roommate group before room selection. All roommate groups must be of the same legal sex unless requesting gender-inclusive housing.

Roommate groups are composed of a leader and members. The leader is the person that creates the roommate group and sends invites to students they would like in their roommate group.

To do so,

  • The leader will need to know the TU ID numbers of the students they would like in a roommate group.
  • Once a student accepts the invite, they will become a member of that leader's roommate group.
  • To accept or deny a roommate group invitation, visit the student housing gateway and click on “roommate groups”.
  • The leader can use that same link to add or remove members of the roommate group.

There is no need to create a roommate group for yourself if you are not looking for a roommate. You can only be a member of ONE roommate group. Only students with a signed contract and paid deposit for 2023-2024 will be able to be pulled into a roommate group.
