Housing Contracts

Completing a contract with University Housing is the first step toward securing a residence hall or an apartment space that is safe, affordable and part of the University of Arkansas campus.

Visit the Housing Portal to sign your contract.

Phase 4 — Room Selection

Phase 3 — Roommate Selection

Phase 3 is not time sensitive. If you are a student who already knows who you want as your roommate, we encourage you to wait a few days after Phase Three opens before going in and selecting your roommate.

Students are only allowed one roommate. If you choose to live in a four-person suite, such as the Maple Hill residence halls, you cannot “hold” the other side of the suite.

Students can pair with another student by using one of three methods for room selection.

• Direct selection by typing in the Student ID number of a roommate request.
• Having the system recommend potential roommates for you
• Search by specific profiles (such as band, bedtime, etc.)

Once your roommate group has been confirmed, students can see this information under “My Details” in the housing contracting portal.

Finally, as a reminder, you will select your room during Phase Four, which begins in mid-March for returning students and late March for first-year students.

Room selection times will be prioritized by contracting date and time (signing the contract and payment of the $240 advance payment and processing charge).

Students will receive an email to their UARK email account if they are in the upcoming “round” of room selection and times will also be posted under “My Details” in the contracting portal.

As a reminder, March 1 at noon is the cancellation deadline for the 2024-2025 Housing Contract to receive the $200 advanced payment refund.
