About housing assignments

Once you create dorms and dorm rooms, you can assign students to individual rooms. Assignments are by semester providing you flexibility to change assignments over time and have unique billing rates for each semester.

Prerequisites

• Create dorms and dorm rooms.

• If billing based on Campus Cafe room assignments, create a housing billing rule.

• The student must have session data for the semester with the room assignment.
