We offer Gender Inclusive Housing!

Gender Inclusive Housing (GIH) is a supportive housing option designed to affirm students whose gender identity and/or gender orientation may not align with traditional gender binaries. This housing option allows individuals to live in an environment where they feel safe, respected, and affirmed in their identity.

  • This option is available to students who have completed at least one year of on-campus housing. Incoming first-year or transfer students interested in GIH must contact the Director of Student Life and Residential Services for further information to determine whether this option meets their needs.
  • Students are not randomly or forcibly assigned to Gender Inclusive Housing. Participation is entirely voluntary, and students who do not opt in will be assigned roommates based on their legal sex, in accordance with standard housing procedures.
  • To ensure safety, respect, and community alignment, students opting into Gender Inclusive Housing will be assigned based on gender identity/orientation, not biological sex. Room assignments will be made by the Office of Residence Life, with consideration given to personal identity and compatibility as assessed through a separate application.
  • Single-occupancy rooms are the preferred living arrangement within Gender Inclusive Housing, and every effort will be made to accommodate this preference. However, when necessary due to space and financial considerations, students may be placed in shared accommodations. In the event of a vacancy, the Office of Residence Life will manage the reassignment or leave the space unfilled based on the availability of waitlisted applicants and the integrity of the GIH community.
  • This housing option is not intended for romantic couples of any orientation nor those solely requesting in order to live with friends.  The university does not support cohabitation with romantic partners in campus housing, as it may interfere with students’ academic focus and the residential experience of others. Its purpose is to support students whose needs are best met in a gender-inclusive living environment.
  • Students must be at least 18 years of age to be eligible for Gender Inclusive Housing due to liability policies. Students under 18 will not be placed in this housing community.
  • The choice to live in Gender Inclusive Housing is confidential. It will not appear on student bills or formal documents. The university will not disclose this information to parents or guardians; it is the student’s right to share housing details with their families if they choose to do so.

All residents of Gender Inclusive Housing are expected to respect the identities, experiences, and privacy of others in the community. The Office of Residence Life reserves the right to intervene and reassign housing if any individual is found to be in violation of these expectations or creates a disruptive environment.

What is the Roommate Request feature?

The roommate request feature allows students to request other students to join roommate groups. When one person in the roommate group selects (or is assigned) a room, all of the students in that roommate group are assigned to that room.

IMPORTANT:

  • If you indicate in your housing application that you do not want anyone to request you as a roommate, that does not mean you will have an entire apartment to yourself.
  • Roommates are ONLY FOR DOUBLES & TRIPLES.

EXAMPLE:

The Room Selection feature allows students to choose a room assignment from the available rooms in the Campus Portal. If you decide not to use the room selection feature, you will be manually assigned to a space by Residence Life staff.

You may notice that specific spaces are unable to be selected from the available spaces in the Room Selection Form for reasons including but not limited to; applicant group restriction, being held offline by the University, are predetermined staff spaces, etc.

Important Reminder from the Housing License:

Section 12. Assignment of Space: "The Agent and Residential Services reserve the right to make changes in assignments...The Agent and/or Residential Services reserve the right to require Licensee to move to a different room or apartment for reasons including, but not limited to: 1) assuring the most effective use of the Facilities (including consolidation and allocation of ADAAA compliant spaces); or 2) when Residential Services officials deem it advisable for the welfare and benefit of Licensee and/or other students; or 3) when repairs and maintenance are required to correct a condition dangerous to the health and/or
safety of the Licensee or other licensees of the Facilities."
