Important Renewal Process Information
PIN Number Required
If you are participating in the room renewal process, you must select a four-digit numerical PIN. When setting your PIN, choose one you will remember as housing staff does not have the ability to look up or reset PIN numbers. If you are pulling friends into your room, you will need their PIN number to complete the process. If you are being pulled into a friend’s room, they will need your PIN number.
Gender Inclusive and Open Housing Available
While the majority of housing is assigned based on roommates having the same gender, we are proud to also offer Gender Inclusive Housing and Open Housing. These housing options provide the opportunity to select an assignment that does not require all roommates to be of the same sex or gender.
Please email mandi.barker@wright.edu with questions.

Family Guide
Now is the time for your student to choose their campus housing for the next academic year. Since you play an important role in their college journey, this guide will provide you with important information to help your family make an informed decision about your student’s housing selection.
Why is Living On Campus the Right Choice?
Living on campus is a great way for your student to make the most of their college experience. Not only are our housing communities conveniently located near your student’s classes and activities, there are many unique benefits only found in campus housing.
Student-Friendly Housing Agreements
Most of our housing options require only a two-semester agreement with an option to stay for the summer. No application fee, deposit, or co-signer required. Your student can live alone, with a friend, or use our roommate matching service. An appeals process is available for students who withdraw, transfer, or have other extenuating circumstances.
A Safe, Encouraging Environment
Housing and maintenance staff strive to provide your student with a safe, well-maintained place to call home. They, along with our on-campus police department, are available 24 hours a day to assist your student when needed. Resident assistants are also available to support and encourage your student to make the most of their Raider experience.
Convenient, Guaranteed Payment Options
Your student’s housing costs are already locked in through our tuition guarantee program. Utilities, streaming, laundry and wi-fi are included at no additional cost. Housing charges are billed each semester to your student’s bursar account and financial aid can be applied to your bill. Payment plans are also available.
Gender Inclusive and Open Housing Options Available
Your student can request a preferred roommate of any sex, or gender in all communities except Hamilton Hall; Hamilton Hall is designed with same-sex floors and community bathrooms. To be eligible, your student must apply for Gender Inclusive and Open Housing in addition to participating in the housing renewal process.
Resident-Only Opportunities
There are plenty of opportunities for your student to make connections and create lifelong memories. They can attend resident-only events such as movie nights, game nights, and cookouts. They can also take advantage of amenities such as our fitness center, disc golf course, and walking/fitness trail. There are also opportunities to build leadership skills through residential student organizations.
