Step 2 – Apply for Housing

• Log in to your student portal and submit the online housing application.
• Pay the housing application fee.
• If needed: Reset your TWU password.

Step 3 – Select a Roommate

• After completing your application, you have the option to join the roommate selection process.
• Roommate requests must be accepted.

Step 4 – Select a Building & Room

• Review the lottery selection process for details.
• On the date listed in Housing Dates & Deadlines, you'll receive a lottery number.
• Your lottery number determines the earliest time you can log in to select your building and room.
• Whoever comes first in the lottery will pick for their roommates. 

Step 5 – Move In

• No early arrivals—time is needed to prepare rooms.
• Check Dates & Deadlines for move-in dates.
• Move-in details will be emailed to your @mytwu account 2-3 weeks before your date.
• You will need your student ID for building access and meal plan. If you haven't already done so, submit a request for a student ID card (follow photo guidelines).
