get permission to do so from their coach. The coach must send an email to concierge@oru.edu allowing the student to live in a room other than the designated rooms. Once permission
is received by housing, an adjustment will be made to the student's housing application
which will allow the student to select a room through the general room selection process.
You must complete the online application portion first before this adjustment can
be made. Type studenthousing.oru.edu in the web browser to access the online housing
