Our Story

URoomSurf.com was founded in 2009 by a group of campus-entrepreneurs at the University of Miami. URoomSurf is a resource to help high school and college students find roommates and connect current and future classmates in a new way.

URoomSurf’s website provides thousands of students around the country with a resource for them to identify compatible roommates immediately. This allows them to spend more time getting to know potential roommates, and less time just trying to find them.

We believe that it is important that you get along with your roommate as having a compatible roommate can make or break a college living experience.

So please remember, its your roommate, your choice!
