Message on 07/03: July updates for new bulldogs from residence life & housing

Update from RLH on the 7th of July, 2024

Hello New Bulldogs!

The Residence Life and Housing team is excited to meet and welcome you to your home away from home! Please review the information below to learn about roommates, generic housed, and meal plans.

Roommate Selection and Assignments

If you have not yet submitted a roommate request, we strongly encourage you to follow the steps below to get to know students who, just like you, are new to the University of Redlands and need to find a roommate.  Please complete the following steps by Wednesday, July 17th. If you have already matched with a roommate no further action is needed.

  • On the MyRedlands Housing Portal, you will find Housing and Roommate Selection in the left toolbar. When you click on Select Roommates, select Fall 2024 from the menu labeled For the Term, you will find you are able to view new student profiles.
  • If you find a student you think would be a good fit, click Request Roommate to notify the student of your interest and to prompt them to review your profile. If they accept your roommate request, which means both parties agree to be housed together, that will be reflected in your MyRedlands housing portal and theirs, too.
  • You will find roommate requests sent to you listed under Pending Roommate Requests and those you have matched with under Roommate Requests.

If you have trouble finding the right match, do not worry, the RLH team, has been helping to match roommates for years, and will do the same for you informed by your Personal Profile  

NOTE: The deadline to complete the roommate selection process is Wednesday, July 17th.

Generic Housed

For billing purposes, your housing assignment currently reflects "Generic Housed". Generic Housing is a placeholder used while assignments are being processed. Each summer incoming students are assigned this category which is replaced by the assigned hall and room once assignments are complete.

  • The Residential Housing Software will use the information you provided on your Housing Intention Form, Roommate Matches and Personal Profiles to make hall and room assignments.

Meal Plans

To learn more about the meal plans offered and meal plan rates, please visit the Harvest Table website. You can make changes to your meal plan selection using your MyRedlands Housing Portal if you prefer a meal plan other than standard All Access meal plan. For instructions on how to select or change a meal plan please click here.

  • Final meal plan selections must be made by September 6th, the first Friday after classes begin.

Looking Forward

Hall and room placements will be assigned and available for students to see the last week of July.
