 Welcome to phase three of the housing contracting process, roommate selection. To begin, go to campushousing.uark.edu. Log in with your username and password. Select residence hall contract slash live with parent form. On the roommates group page, you can select your roommate in three different ways. Search for a roommate by details, by profiles, or suggested roommates. If you choose not to select a roommate, hit save and continue. Unless you select a designated single room during room selection, you will still have a roommate. The roommate selection process is driven by a group leader who has the ability to start or end a group. Students in living learning communities may only select roommates in the same living learning community. Students in the honors program may select roommates from the general population, but their selected roommate must have a 3.75 high school GPA to be eligible to live in Hawthorne's housing. When selecting a roommate by details, students may select a roommate by either their student number or by their web name, which is the front part of their student email address. Once you have found the student that you are looking for, you may message the student by selecting send message or invite them to your group by selecting add to group. The student will receive an email and confirm they want to join your group. Students must respond through the portal, not through email to confirm roommate groups. You may also search for a roommate by profiles. This allows students to select profiles that are important to them and search for a potential roommate who match their profile priorities. Select the profile answer you want to search by and select search roommates at the bottom. Once you have found your preferred roommate, you may message or invite them to your group. Finally, you may search for a roommate using the suggested roommates feature. The portal will show you the percentage match of the profile answers to your completed personal profile. You may send messages to a potential roommate or you may invite a roommate to your group. Success! Now you and your roommate are in a group together. A few final notes about roommate selection. The maximum roommate group size is 2 students. All correspondence is sent directly to student's UARC email accounts. It is important that this email is checked frequently to respond to any potential roommate messages or confirm roommates. Again, students must respond through the portal, not through email to confirm roommate groups. Students will also receive messages if a group leader deletes a roommate group. You may review or edit pending or outgoing roommate requests at any time by going back to the roommates group page.
