Room Change & Artemis

Room change is for students who would like to change rooms or bring in a friend into an empty space in a room, suite, or apartment. Room Change is offered at several times during the academic year and specifics will be emailed to you. Any necessary forms will be located in Artemis, your all-access housing portal. If you wish to participate in Room Change, log into ARTEMIS and complete the required form and you will receive an email with further instructions.

Room Change 2021

For Upperclassmen

To "Room Change Re-Assign" means to select a new room while keeping your old room, without cancelling your housing application. Once Current Campus Residents, Upperclass Non-Residents, or Transfer students have selected a room, they will be able to see available/unfilled rooms to make changes to their selection. If you don't see a space you are interested in, you might want to consider Room Swap instead.
Room Swap refers to finding a room you want on a spreadsheet that includes other students who want to change rooms. If they want your room in return, you can swap. To start the Room Swap process:
  • Log into ARTEMIS, where you will find the Room Swap Form.
  • If you are able to find someone with a room space that you would like to swap with, each of you need to send an e-mail to hrl@uncg.edu with the following info:
    • Name
    • UNCG ID Number
    • Hall and Room to which you are currently assigned
    • Name of the Student with whom you want to switch rooms
    • His or her Hall and Room assignment
    Please also note that submitting your preferences on the Room Swap form does not automatically ensure an assignment change. Each student will receive a confirmation e-mail for the agreed swap of rooms. BOTH STUDENTS MUST CONFIRM OR THERE WILL BE NO SWAP. Once we have confirmed the information, we will make the room swap.

For New Freshmen

If you are assigned to a room but you wish to make changes to your assignment, you will need to request to DE-ASSIGN from your current assignment. To de-assign means to be removed from a room to which you were assigned, without cancelling your housing application. You may want to consider this if:
  • You have found a person and you'd like to be paired with as a roommate and you want to add each other to your housing applications. (Remember that to have a mutual roommate request, both students must request each other.)
  • You want to re-order your building preferences because you have changed your mind on the hall in which you'd prefer to live.
  • You have decided to add or drop a Special Interest Community. To remove a special interest community preference, you must change the preference to "I don't want to live in a Special Interest Community."
To de-assign, you must submit the Housing De-Assignment Form for New Freshmen. (Please Note: Do NOT use the De-Assignment Form to cancel your housing. This is not a cancellation form!)

  • Within one business day after this form is completed, you will receive an e-mail notifying you that you have been de-assigned from your current 2021-22 assignment.
  • You can then update your application preferences in ARTEMIS, before the next wave of assignments goes out.
  • You will have until June 30, 2021, to de-assign from your currently assigned room.
