FAQ’sQ: I am a new student and I heard that I will be placed in temporary housing. What exactly does that mean?A: To honor the guarantee of housing to all new undergraduates who apply for housing by the May 1st deadline, the University finds it necessaryto assign a significant portion of our new admits into temporary housing (double rooms assigned as tripled accommodations or loungesutilized as bedrooms). It is anticipated that approximately 1,400 new students will start out in temporary housing. Temporary housing is aphenomena occurring on many campuses as the number of college bound graduates continues to grow. Students assigned to temporaryhousing should assume that they will be there for the entire fall semester. Furthermore, every resident of temporary housing will receive a $5daily credit to their University account for everyday that they reside in a temporary space.Q: I have been assigned to a triple for the fall semester. Am I guaranteed to be de-tripled for the Spring?A: Our goal is to offer ever resident of temporary housing a permanent space by the start of the Spring semester. That said, there may be asmall number of students who return for the spring semester and are still assigned to a tripled roomQ. I'm glad I'm living on campus but I'd rather live in another room. Can I request a room change?A: We hope you're happy in your assigned space. If not, there may be an opportunity to change your room after the Room Freeze ends onSeptember 9th. If you decide you want to change rooms you can submit a room change request on the Campus Residences homepage (www.stonybrook.edu/housing ) on or after September 9, 2013. Since occupancy is expected to remain beyond capacity for the entire Fallsemester, room change requests are not guaranteed. However, we'll do our best to accommodate requests. Freshmen may only changerooms within their assigned Undergraduate College and room change requests will only be considered to “like” type spaces (double to double,single to single, etc). For more information contact your quad office.Q: I applied for campus housing this Fall, but if I find that I am able to live off-campus instead, when is the last day I can contactthe school and receive a full refund?A: If you've decided to cancel your housing request you need to notify us in writing of your change of plans. The last day to cancel housingand receive a partial refund of the housing deposit is August 15. You should email your cancellation request to reside@stonybrook.edu.Q: How are roommates assigned?A: While we make every effort to honor specific roommate requests we are unable to guarantee placement with requested roommates. Whenassigning spaces we do our best to match lifestyle preferences as indicated on the on-line housing preference form. Also, because we housestudents based on their Undergraduate College placement, it may not be possible for roommate requests to be accommodated.Q: How do I log onto the Internet from my residence hall room?A: The Stony Brook ResNet registration will require that your computer have up-to-date anti-virus software and all critical Micro-soft Windowspatches. You will not be able to go on-line until your computer is registered.
