学生 with room assignments may look for other students to make a 1-for-1 room swap with. This could include students who picked a suite together and want to swap assignments within a suite OR students who want to request swaps between rooms, 套房,/or buildings.
房间互换 requests may only be submitted between 2 students with active Fall room assignments (i.e. 不 available for students on the Guaranteed List). A student may 不 request to swap their room with a不her person after they have cancelled their room assignment via the 住房 Cancellation Form. If you plan to cancel housing but wish to arrange with a不her student to swap rooms, the Room Swap Request must be submitted and finalized 之前 you cancel your housing.
Room swaps can不 be made for RA rooms and/or rooms in the Columbia 住房 exchange.
The College reserves the right to cancel / reverse any room swaps as needed.

Only rising-Seniors (who had 400 points in the Lottery) may request a room change over the summer 之前 the start of the Fall semester.

Room change results will be communicated to your Barnard email by August 1, 2024. If given a room change, a different student will be assigned to your previous room (i.e. it will be given to a不her student requesting a room change or to someone on the Wait List, etc).
Rising-Juniors & Sophomores may apply for room changes starting with the Fall Room Change Request process or look for Post-Lottery 1-for-1 房间互换 (see above).
