Room Change Process
Residents can submit a room change request after the first two weeks and before the last two weeks of each semester. Room changes are processed on date of submission and available bed spaces. Not all room changes will be approved. Requests will be kept on file for the current semester only. If the request is not granted in the semester it was submitted, a new request must be submitted for the next semester.Print the Room Change Request Form (PDF)
To be considered for a room change, residents must submit the Room Change Request Form to Residence and Greek Life (3241 S. Wabash #110) with all required signatures. Incomplete forms will not be processed.
Once the form is received, Residence and Greek Life will communicate via email. Please provide your current IIT, Shimer or Vandercook email address. Print clearly.
Residents can select one of the following room types:
ROOM CHANGE: A room change is when a resident wants to move into a different building, hall or room. Provide your top two choices for a room change. Please remember, that SSV residents are not permitted to move into MSV or GU after the start of the contract. If you do not have a room preference, instead provide the room type you want to move into (ie MSV double or GU Studio).
ROOM SWAP: A room swap is when all roommates involved agree to change to a new room to allow for residents to live with the preferrd roommate. Attach a written statement of where each roommate prefers to move. Signatures of all roommates are required.
ROOMMATE REQUEST: A roommate request is when a resident wants to move into a room with an available empty bed space with a preferred roommate. Signature of the preferred roommate is required.
