Room Change Request
There is a room freeze for the first two weeks after the start of classes. This allows time for staff to identify available spaces in housing facilities.
- Residents may request a room change through their myKU portal.
- Students may not move to another space without Housing & Residence Life authorization. If you do, you will incur charges and may face disciplinary action.
How to request a change
- Log in to your housing portal
- Click on the Room Change Request tab, or if using mobile, use the menu icon to select Room Change Request
- Select the Room Change Request button
- Complete preferences and click Save & Continue
- Submit the Request
Important things to note
- All submitted room change requests will be reviewed by KU Housing & Residence Life.
- Rates vary by building and room type
- As part of this request, you will have the option to select specific locations and make roommate requests; however, requests are not guaranteed, and our office will prioritize roommate requests over location requests. Each resident moving needs to submit a room change request.
- If we're able to accommodate your request, you will receive an email (to your KU email) with instructions to accept your room change offer. You will have 2 business days to accept or decline your room change offer.
- Room change requests are processed on Mondays and Tuesdays. Offers are sent based on availability of space(s). For accepted offers, movement will begin on Fridays.
- You will receive specific move instructions after a room change is accepted.
