How are hall and roommate assignments made?
Students whose deposits are received before the April 1st priority deadline will be placed first. Priority is determined by the date on which the housing deposit is received by the Housing Office. If you request to live with a particular person, and that person requests you, every effort will be made to honor that request. If you do not indicate a preference, the information on the housing application will be used to choose a suitable roommate.
Returning students select their rooms during the spring term for the following Fall term. New students to Freed Hardeman are assigned a residence hall room during the summer and receive their assignments via mail.
When will my room assignment
and roommate information be sent?
New students to FHU are assigned a residence hall room during the summer (by July 15) and receive their assignments by mail. Returning students will receive their assignments prior to the end of each semester via email.
What if I do not like my assignment?
If you are unsatisfied with your assignment, you may request a change during our free move period. Free Move period will be a two week period within the first month of each term. The availability of space will determine your chances for a room change.
Are private rooms available?
Students may request a private room, but private rooms are not guaranteed and are awarded as space becomes available.
Are there internet and telephones connection in each room?
Each residence hall room has internet connections separate from the telephone lines. You will need an ethernet card to access the network. Both PCs and Macs are compatible with our network. Wireless internet connectivity is also available in each dorm.
We do not offer telephone service in the dorms.
How long are the beds?
Our beds are extra long twin mattresses which means they are 81" long.
What size are the rooms?
The sizes of rooms vary from hall to hall. Go to Residence Hall page for more info.
What should I bring?
