A roommate group is a feature in the Housing Portal that allows you to create a group of roommates before selecting a room. By creating your group in advance, you can keep track of who is in your group and ensure that everyone is together on the day the room, suite, or apartment is selected.

Before you can create or join a roommate group, you must have a completed housing application.

Once you have a completed housing application, log into the Housing Portal (anytime after April 1, 2026) and select "Continue" on your housing application. If you already have a group, it will show that group. If you don't, you'll only see the "Create Group" button. 

You can only invite people to a group if you're the leader. If you are a member of a group, you will need to ask the leader to do the inviting.

You can search for roommates by UIN or Roommate Profile questionnaire responses.

Once you invite them and select "Finish," they will receive an email notifying them of their pending invitation. In addition, every other member of the group will get an email notifying them that someone else was invited.

Desired roommates MUST have completed the same application as the leader. An Academic Year applicant cannot form a roommate group with a West Lake Village applicant. Additionally, current residents cannot form roommate groups with new housing applicants (those not currently living on campus during returning room selection).

To respond to an invitation, you will log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the Roommate Group Manager page, you will see your group, its members, and each member's status. To the left of your name, you will see two buttons: Accept and Reject. Note that whichever option you choose, the other members of the group will receive an email notifying them of your choice.

While we encourage you to make a decision on every invitation, you may choose not to reply. If you do not reply, other members of the group will see that you have not responded when they check the group status. In addition, if you do not reply, you will not be considered a member of the group, so if the group selects a room before you accept, you will not be assigned with them. We encourage you to make a decision so potential group members know if you wish to be included or not.

If You Are the Group Leader
Log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the roommate group page, you will see a red "Leave" button next to your name. The group members will receive an email informing them that you left the group. If you leave the group, the entire group will be disbanded and the rest of your group will need to start over if they wish to be in a group together.

If You Are a Group Member
Log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the roommate group page, you will see a red "Leave" button next to your name. If you leave the group, the rest of the group will receive an email notifying them that you left the group.

The leader/member with the earliest room selection timeslot (determined based on housing application complete date) should log in to select a room. You will see all available room options. Some of these options may not be large enough to accommodate your entire group, so you will have to go back to the room list to find a suite/apartment that has enough vacancies to satisfy your roommate group size.

Once you have selected a room/suite/apartment, you will be asked to identify which roommate lives in which particular room. After placing each roommate in a room, select "Assign Beds" and you will be assigned. You and each of your roommates will receive an email notifying you that you have been assigned.

If you see a message that says no rooms are available, there may be no rooms left that can accommodate your entire roommate group. For example, you may have 4 people in your group, but there may only be suites available with three or fewer open spaces. In this instance you would need to consult with your roommate group on how to split your group up. To do this, you can go back to the roommate group page and remove the roommates you do not wish to assign at this time. Then, when you move forward, you can select a room for only you and some of the group. The rest of the group can assign themselves together elsewhere during their selection timeslot. They will need to form a new group with a new leader in order to select a room together.

We do not recommend removing someone from the group unless you tell them you're going to do it in advance.

No. You will need to recreate your Roommate Group each year you choose to live on campus.

Our system can only assign people as directed by you. If you and your roommates were not assigned together, then the student who selected the space for your group removed one or more of your roommates before selecting a room. The system will not mistakenly separate students. 

If Room Selection is still open, you may be able to live with them. However, you will not be assigned with them automatically. If you know where your friend is living, you can try to select a bed space in their room, suite, or apartment. 

Eligible FTIC applicants (signed agreement, application fee paid, orientation date selected by May 7, 2026) have the opportunity to participate in room selection in May. If demand exceeds supply, FTIC applicants will be placed on a waiting list in order of application complete date. 

If space becomes available, we will contact the applicant via Eagle e-mail to offer a room, so it is imperative that applicants check Eagle e-mail daily. Please note -- we will not be able to fulfill roommate requests, as we anticipate only having single spaces to offer to students at any given time. Due to the nature of this process, rooms may not be available for weeks or months. We will work diligently to get through the waiting list until the end of the first week of Fall classes.

As applicants check Eagle e-mail daily, they may receive one of the following e-mail messages:

• Room offer 鈥� A room offer email will indicate that we have a vacancy and provide the building, room number, room type (SoVi 2-bedroom single, SoVi 3-bedroom single w/kitchenette) and cost where the vacancy exists. It will not provide specific information about roommates. Roommate details are only provided to students after securing a room (this is true in all of our room selection/assignment processes). Applicants will have 48 hours to reply to the email to accept or decline the offer. If accepted, we will assign the room and send a confirmation email. If the offer is declined, the applicant will come off the waiting list and may not rejoin the waiting list or be placed at the end of the waiting list. If there is no response to the email, the applicant will come off the waiting list.
• Action required to stay on the waiting list 鈥� Periodically, we will require that students log into the Housing Web Portal to indicate they want to remain on the waiting list. The applicant must complete this task within 48 hours or will come off the waiting list.
• Waiting list update 鈥� Starting May 15, 2026, we will send out waiting list numbers and bi-weekly updates about our progress on the waiting list. These updates are typically sent out close to 5 PM so we can accomplish as much administrative processing of cancellations and offers before providing an update. Numerous factors impact the waiting list offers, including gender, ADA accommodation, etc.

It is critical that applicants check Eagle e-mail daily. We highly recommend connecting Eagle e-mail to a mail application that provides notifications when emails are received (instructions for how to set this up can be found on the ).

If the applicant is no longer interested in on-campus housing and does not want to be on the waiting list or does not plan to attend 蘑菇TV, they must complete the online cancellation form by logging into the and clicking on the Cancellation Request Form button. Notifying another office at 蘑菇TV of changed plans does not constitute a request for cancellation of the Housing Agreement. Students may cancel the Housing Agreement prior to assignment without an approved reason and without financial penalty.

Some applicants will not be able to get on-campus housing, so we recommend that all applicants consider alternative housing arrangements by researching off-campus housing options. There are off-campus housing options available close to the 蘑菇TV campus. There are many apartments, houses, and townhouses that cater to students, some of which are within walking distance of our campus. Here are a few resources you can use to find off-campus housing options:

• 鈥� 蘑菇TV has partnered with College Pads to provide a marketplace of off campus options (offcampushousing.fgcu.edu). We do not own, operate, or endorse any of the properties listed.
• Apartments.com, Zillow, Trulia, and other online listing sites that offer apartments, houses and townhouses for rent.

Under typical circumstances, non-first year applicants would have the opportunity to participate in room selection in May. However, we antcipiate an overwhelming demand from our current residents to return to on-campus housing for the next academic year. Non-first year applicants are only eligible for the same room types and communities as our returning students. Therefore, we anticipste a waiting list.

We administer a waiting list because many students have a change in circumstance from the time they were assigned and the start of the academic term. Therefore, many of those on the waiting list will get assigned. Applicants' position on the waiting list is determined by the housing application complete date (agreement signed and application fee paid).

A roommate group is a feature in the Housing Portal that allows you to create a group of roommates before selecting a room. By creating your group in advance, you can keep track of who is in your group and ensure that everyone is together on the day the room, suite, or apartment is selected.

Once you invite them and select "Finish," they will receive an email notifying them of their pending invitation. In addition, every other member of the group will get an email notifying them that someone else was invited.

Desired roommates MUST have completed the same application as the leader. An Academic Year applicant cannot form a roommate group with a West Lake Village applicant. Additionally, current residents cannot form roommate groups with new housing applicants (those not currently living on campus during returning room selection).

To respond to an invitation, you will log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the Roommate Group Manager page, you will see your group, its members, and each member's status. To the left of your name, you will see two buttons: Accept and Reject. Note that whichever option you choose, the other members of the group will receive an email notifying them of your choice.

While we encourage you to make a decision on every invitation, you may choose not to reply.

In addition, if you do not reply, you will not be considered a member of the group, so if the group selects a room before you accept, you will not be assigned with them. We encourage you to make a decision so potential group members know if you wish to be included or not.

If You Are the Group Leader
Log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the roommate group page, you will see a red "Leave" button next to your name. The group members will receive an email informing them that you left the group. If you leave the group, the entire group will be disbanded and the rest of your group will need to start over if they wish to be in a group together.

If You Are a Group Member
Log into the Housing Portal and select "Continue" on your housing application. At the bottom of the roommate group page, you will see a red "Leave" button next to your name. If you leave the group, the rest of the group will receive an email notifying them that you left the group.

The leader/member with the earliest room selection timeslot (determined based on housing application complete date) should log in to select a room. You will see all available room options. Some of these options may not be large enough to accommodate your entire group, so you will have to go back to the room list to find a suite/apartment that has enough vacancies to satisfy your roommate group size.

Once you have selected a room/suite/apartment, you will be asked to identify which roommate lives in which particular room. After placing each roommate in a room, select "Assign Beds" and you will be assigned. You and each of your roommates will receive an email notifying you that you have been assigned.

If you see a message that says no rooms are available, there may be no rooms left that can accommodate your entire roommate group. For example, you may have 4 people in your group, but there may only be suites available with three or fewer open spaces. In this instance you would need to consult with your roommate group on how to split your group up. To do this, you can go back to the roommate group page and remove the roommates you do not wish to assign at this time. Then, when you move forward, you can select a room for only you and some of the group. The rest of the group can assign themselves together elsewhere during their selection timeslot. They will need to form a new group with a new leader in order to select a room together.

We do not recommend removing someone from the group unless you tell them you're going to do it in advance.

No. You will need to recreate your Roommate Group each year you choose to live on campus.

Our system can only assign people as directed by you. If you and your roommates were not assigned together, then the student who selected the space for your group removed one or more of your roommates before selecting a room. The system will not mistakenly separate students. 

If Room Selection is still open, you may be able to live with them. However, you will not be assigned with them automatically. If you know where your friend is living, you can try to select a bed space in their room, suite, or apartment. 

You must be registered for classes to live on campus during the summer. Some academic sessions overlap and will affect which housing term you should choose.
