Finding a roommate can be one of the most exciting, but challenging parts of the housing process. At Temple, we pride ourselves on offering tools to help you succeed. We understand that as you transition from high school to college and throughout your time on campus, the need to find a compatible roommate is crucial.
Roommate Matching in MyHousing: :
- In your housing application, you can create or update your student profile/questionnaire which covers the most frequently mentioned concerns between roommates. Completing this allows roommates to search for you!
- Once your housing application is complete, please
- Utilize the search function to look for roommates based on profile questions or search for a specific person if you already have someone in mind
- Use "Suggested Roommates" to search for students who have the highest percentage match to you
- Create a roommate group or join an existing roommate groups
Once a roommate group is completed/confirmed, the person with the earliest timeslot will select housing on behalf of the entire group.
Be sure to use the Roommate Matching Guide on the left side of this page or watch the Roommate Matching video for step-by-step instructions to complete roommate matching successfully.
