Housing Roommate and Official Room Assignment?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Berkeley

<p>This is speculation. However, does anybody think that housing is going to post up roommate assignments this week? </p>

<p>I looked in an older thread about housing assignments and I found the website used that time. The website to check roommate assignments at that time was <a href="http://www.housing.berkeley.edu/Move_in_2007/roominfo.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.housing.berkeley.edu/Move_in_2007/roominfo.htm&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p>

<p>This website was accessalbe a few days ago, but now, it does not work (HTTP 404) now. Could this mean that housing is preparing to give roommate assignments?</p>

<p>I called housing and they said sometime first week of August. Last year it was August 3rd, but we were able to get into our rooms almost a week earlier last week than this. Last year we moved in on the 19th; this year the 24th, so you do the math.</p>

<p>The 2008 unit letter is up, but dates for 2007 are on it. I think housing is getting ready to post roommate info.</p>

<p>Only the 2007 dates are on it and it's not updated, yet: UC</a> Berkeley Fall 2008 - Residence Hall Move In</p>

<p>The reason your link doesn't work is because it says ".../...2007.../..." in the URL.</p>

5

<p>Actually ".../...2008.../..." doesn't work either.</p>

6

<p>another one: UC</a> Berkeley Fall 2008 - Residence Hall Move In</p>

<p>lets use this as a place to find the roomates. I'll bet you're roomate will probably have a CC account.</p>

<p>I used a cached 2006 link (UC</a> Berkeley Room Assignment Information) and it led me to the login window to find my roommate and room info:</p>

<p>It said:</p>

<p>"My Name</p>

<p>You have a valid Residence Halls Housing contract, but you have not yet been assigned to a specific room, so we do not yet have roommate information to give you. If you recently returned your housing contract, you will receive a room assignment shortly. Please check back in a day or two, or call the Residence Hall Assignments Office at (510) 642-4108. </p>

<p>Thank you,
Residential and Family Living Staff"</p>

<p>That must mean they still have to put the info in their database and website. I'm guessing that it will be up in a few days.</p>

<p>Hmmm. Now all of the links have been taken down. Looks like uploading to me.</p>

10

<p>I called housing and they said this week or next week.</p>

11

<p>I called the room assignment number and they only said soon.</p>

<p>Can anybody verify the Aug 3 rumor?</p>

12

<p>We can wait 5 days to verify the rumor... chill out! :D</p>

13

<p>It isn't really a rumor, just an observation last year, the names were released on August 3rd. Since move-in is a different date this year than last, one should take August 3rd with a grain of salt.</p>

14

<p>Websites have now changed to 2008 information and there is a link to check your roommate and room using your calnet id number. NOTE: right now, at least for me, it says "You have a valid Residence Halls HOusing contract, but you have not yet been assigned to a specific room, so we do not yet have roommate information to give you. . . Please check back in a day or two. . . " This, of course, is bull because I got to select my room. But at least the messages have now changed.</p>

<p>Click on the link below, then scroll down the left side and click some more!</p>

<p>UC</a> Berkeley Fall 2008 - Residence Hall Move In</p>

15

<p>That is a link for Unit 1 - simply change the URL as needed to see the version for your own dorm unit.</p>

16

<p>Hopefully, the assignments and info come out tomorrow.</p>

17

<p>I clicked the link and the message is the same as the last time I posted the other link. They're still uploading the info.</p>

18

<p>We can't really do much about it can we -_-
Who here is active on the Class of 2012 wall?? :P</p>

19

<p>I'm reasonably active - but not as much as others (like Phillip!)</p>

<p>"Please check the left hand sidebar of this letter to find out your building placement and the contact information for your future roommate(s) in the beginning of August."</p>

<p>I think the info is coming out on August 1st or 4-7.</p>
