The housing agreement is priced per person and includes all utilities. Once RCCD verifies the housing application and confirms eligibility, potential residents will be entered into UCR’s roommate matching system. This system allows residents to:
- Select a roommate,
- Be matched with compatible roommates, and
- Determine unit availability.
Important Note: Being entered into the UCR roommate matching system does not guarantee housing, as assignments are made on a first-come, first-served basis.
