Returning Room Selection – FPP & DRC

Students in Fostering Panther Pride (FPP) and students with medical accommodations who are deemed to live on campus in order to attend FIU will have priority selection during General Room Selection.  

Step 1 

Add yourself to the Fall 2025 and Spring 2026 waitlist at my.fiu.edu by January 31, 2025.

To be eligible for any part of the Room Selection Process, you must be a current housing resident and be on the waitlist for 2025-2026 on-campus housing. Additionally, you must have paid off any housing balances from previous semesters.

Step 2

Participate in roommate matching on your housing portal when you receive your invitation. Students with completed agreements will receive access as early as January 9 to start searching for roommates for Fall 2025 and Spring 2026. Roommate matching will be available through February 10.

Roommate groups must be finalized before room selection.

 

Step 3

Receive your Room Selection instructions to Panther Mail/Preferred E-mail on February 7 at 5 pm. This will include important information needed for Room Selection including your appointment time. Appointments will be assigned based on a random number with priority given to students with a higher urgency for housing.

Step 4

See the options online on our website or during our virtual Residence Hall Tours, which will be available on our Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube pages the week of February 10th.

Step 5

Assign yourself to a room and complete the housing agreement during General Room Selection on February 17 - February 20. Residents will be given an appointment to self-select their room for next year. At the time you select your room, you will also be able to pull in your friends to be your roommates.

*Housing and specific room types are not guaranteed.  You should only select a room you would be willing to live in for the 2025-2026 academic year.
