Reasonable Housing Accommodation Requests
June 1

If you are seeking accessible housing accommodations due to a physical, psychological, or other disability-related limitation, contact Student Access prior to June 1. Review the information regarding reasonable accommodations and documentation guidelines. Following a decision that a housing accommodation is needed for access, Student Access will notify Housing and Residential Experience. The office will make every effort to find an appropriate and reasonable assignment as recommended by Student Access.

Roommate Requests
June 15

Vanderbilt matches first-year roommates with consideration of their responses to a short list of questions included on the first-year housing application. However, first-year students are permitted to submit roommate requests. Each student in the pair must request the other in order for the request to be considered. Please note that we cannot guarantee that roommate requests will be honored.
Log into Your Enrollment Services (YES) Portal to check your progress on several of the critical tasks and input your emergency contact information. Note it takes up to four days for changes in YES to appear within the portal.
