Finding Roommates


Who you live with can be just as important as where you live. While your best friend might seem like an obvious choice, be sure that you have considered the challenges that living in close quarters will bring.

Living together can sometimes strain friendships, particularly if you have differing views around cleanliness, lifestyle/social habits, managing expenses, or expectations of each other. So, take your time and avoid rushing into a roommate situation if you're not entirely confident about it.


Using the Off-Campus Roommate Finder

The Off-Campus Roommate Finder allows you to filter by social and cleanliness habits, graduation year, gender identity, pets, and more. Start by signing in or creating an account.
Once you've signed up for a student account, you can create a roommate profile. Only those who have already completed their own profiles will be able to view yours. Now you can share a bit about yourself and start connecting with others in search of a roommate (or roommates)!

Already have a place?

In addition to creating a roommate profile, you can create a listing to share in the Housing search to reach more potential roommates. This way, your property listing will be visible to anyone searching the Housing section of the site, versus only those with active roommate profiles.
First, select Roommate Profile in the dropdown under your name in the top-right corner of the page, and then select Housing from the options on the left. Select Add a Listing and share some information about your place.
