Do you get to choose your roommate?

<p>I was wondering, do entering freshmen get to choose who they want their roommate to be? Like based on gender, major, ethnicity, etc.?</p>

<p>I wrote them a letter saying I wanted a 5'3, petite brunette girl with brown eyes, an athletic body, and a 3.3+ gpa who puts out on a nightly basis. I suggest you do the same.</p>

<p>roommates will always be the same gender as you, but other than that you don't get a preference.</p>

<p>If you know the name of who you'd like to room with, I believe you can request. (The other person has to request you also)</p>

<p>You don't get a preference as to what type of person you want to room with (ex. quiet, smart, does hw for fun, etc). You can, however, mutually request each other. (Usually works, but I have heard some people say that they didn't get who they requested). </p>

<p>"roommates will always be the same gender as you, but other than that you don't get a preference."</p>

<p>LOL tell that to summer advising. I roomed w/ some girl......that was interesting -_-</p>

<p>Well the tour lady said that you can request someone with the same major as you. So that's not true?? lol</p>

<p>tour lady has no idea what shes talking about.</p>

<p>You can request to be with a friend, but otherwise you take what you are given. I have several friends who moved into different dorm rooms right after the first quarter so it can be done. I suggest the suites, just a hint.</p>

<p>You can select what type of roommate you get by opting for a themed dorm, I know theres a building just for engineering majors for example.</p>
