UNM Residence Life & Student Housing

Mar 15th, 2024

The housing process for incoming freshman has been so bad its made me want to transfer schools altogether. UNM randomly decided that 50% of freshman could select their dorms on the 8th while the rest got waitlisted. Everyone waitlisted has 0 decent options.

Dear upper classmen students, we unfortunately admitted too many freshmen and did not listen to our own policy on freshman housing. We also did not think to look at the number of students registering for their rooms back in March or even a month ago. Therefore any room that you pay thousands or hundreds of dollars extra for (single rooms) is meaningless. You will now have a roommate in your room at the start of your semester (which is less than a month away). We will also be putting any student who has not registered for housing yet due to academic holds the student has no control over on a wait-list and hope for the best. We will still be charging at lowest $5,000 a year for a 1012 room. Sincerely a school who fights food and housing insecurity. Thanks UNM for not getting better, think about this when you ask alumni for donations.

The Experience with RLSH is a nightmare at UNM. The staff is inconsiderate, and only hears what they want to. The buildings are old and wearing out so they always claim they have no money just like UNM in general does. Staff responds with an attitude, and careless if you tell them what needs to be improved because they don't think its an issue. Live somewhere else if you can. They overcharge for what you get.

I would like to thank Jessika Griego for all her help for going above and beyond to help me with an issue I had with my daughters accommodation. She has made it so much easier for my daughter to move from the UK to the UNM into the fantastic LOBO Village.
