Hi! No worries, it’s not too late.

1.) Go to your housing account2.) Click apply like you did when you applied3.) Click on Review/Update application and you can request a specific roommate from there!

Do I have to live on campus my first year?

Nope! You have the option to live wherever you please. We do recommend living on campus for a fuller experience though. You make many friends in your dorm and find yourself more involved in campus activities. But you can still be involved if you live at home or off campus!

Here’s a link to all the information about WSU Housing: http://webapp1.wright.edu/housing/

There’s all kinds of dorms to choose from! Let us know if you have any questions.
