First-Year Student Process

Congratulations on your acceptance to Elon University and welcome to the Elon community! You are joining over 4100 other residential students in a premier learning environment. As the application process begins, this site is designed to provide you and your family information about living on campus. As you read through the materials carefully, please let us know if you have questions.

During the fall selection process, incoming students are asked to provide information about their lifestyle so we can match you with a roommate if you don’t already have one determined. This includes information about communication, study habits, bedtime, etc.

Students are also encouraged to apply to a living learning community during this time.

Once assignments are emailed to all students, no room changes will be considered.
