Room Change Requests

The room selection process doesn't have to end unless you want it to. If you ended up in a residence hall you aren't satisfied with, or you and your friend had to choose a room away from each other, you can add yourself to a building waitlist or submit a roommate request.

Orientation Tour Rooms

Couldn't visit a residence hall during Orientation or just want to take a second look? We have you covered. At BGSU, we believe that your housing isn’t just a place to sleep - it’s a place of excitement, a community of friends, and the center of your Falcon journey.

Bed Delofting

Before move-in, all beds are set to the standard loft height because it’s most popular among students.
