THE INS AND OUTS OF THE ROOM DRAW

Prior to each room draw, the floor charts of the available rooms will be posted outside of the Office of Residential Life. At this time, students should get acquainted with the rooms they would like to select when they enter the room draw. They should also select roommates with whom they would like to pick a room. Once your roommate group is selected, determine which member of the group has the best time to enter the room draw. All members of your group do not need to be present to select a room; however the designated person will need all of the other member’s room draw cards and SRU IDs. Groups must equal the number of beds in the room that the group is selecting.

Please note that students who select a room in the room draw obligate themselves to a full academic year of university housing. Current freshman, because of the two-year residency requirement, will not need to place a housing deposit. Each current freshman will automatically receive a room draw card. The sophomore room draw will take place in the Rodgers Recreation Center conference room.

Registration is Required

Students must be registered for the Fall 2006 Semester in order to participate in room draw. Students not registered for the Fall 2006 semester may not participate.

Rooms filled to Capacity

To select a room you must have the correct number of students to fill it to capacity. Students may not draw for a room if the room is not filled to capacity. It is the responsibility of each student to find his or her own roommate.

Room Choice is Binding

A student is entitled to only one housing choice at room draw. Room and roommate(s) choice at room draw are binding. If at any time after room draw the occupancy of the room drops below capacity, the Residential Life Office staff has the right to assign a student to a room without prior consent of the student (s) currently assigned to that room.

Room Draw Exception

Students who believe they have reasons to be granted an exception to any room draw policies may submit a written petition on or before Friday, April 14, 2006. In order to ensure consistency and fairness in the process, room draw exceptions are rarely made.

Room Draw Cards

  1. Cards will contain the following information: student name, time and date of draw. Student ID#’s will not be printed on cards for security reasons.
  2. Eligible students will receive a room draw card in their SRU boxes on or around Monday April 17, 2006.
  3. In order to be eligible for a room draw card, you must be registered for the Fall 2006 semester. Students not registered for the Fall 2006 semester will not receive room draw cards.
  4. You must have your own card and the cards of all your roommate (s) with you at the draw in order to participate. If you are drawing for a group, this means that you may be in possession of several other student draw cards.
  5. If you lose your room draw card, report it to the Office of Residential Life immediately. You must present your student ID to get a replacement card.

All freshmen and sophomores who are not commuting to campus from their parent’s are guaranteed housing and are required to live on-campus. Students who are allowed to commute from their parent’s home and fail to adhere to the definition of that status are billed for room and board. To assure compliance the university reserves the right to verify a students address at any time. It is important that you understand this policy to avoid any additional charges. 


As a residential institution, Salve Regina University places great value on the contributions a quality residential experience can make to a students development. 

Experience has shown that campus residency in the first two years of a student's college career is crucial to personal growth and refinement of social skills. As a result, all freshmen and sophomores who are not commuting to campus from their parent’s are guaranteed housing and are required to live on-campus.

Students who are allowed to commute from their parent’s home and fail to adhere to the definition of that status are billed for room and board.
