University of South Florida: Can my student choose their roommate?
DIRECT ANSWER
This answer preserves school guidance recorded on 2026-09-01. Follow the linked university sources for current requirements, costs and dates.
Yes. USF allows students to request and form a roommate group during the published housing process.
For 2026–27 incoming students, roommate groups could be formed from Feb. 2 through March 2. The group must follow USF's portal process and still select from available rooms; choosing a roommate does not guarantee a particular hall or room.
