Find Your Home away from Home on George Mason University Campus!

Can I request a specific roommate?

Am I required to have a meal plan?
Meal plans are required for students in traditional residence halls but optional for those in apartment-style housing.
How will I know if I am assigned housing?
You will receive a notification through the Mason Housing Portal with your assignment details.
