<p>How do you get matched with your dorm roommate? Do you get to choose? Specifically purdue. But any broad information would be helpful</p>
<p>A lot of colleges use a questionnaire, but it doesn’t really turn out any better than random selection anyway. Your roommate is probably gonna get on your nerves at some time or other, and you just kind of have to deal with it.</p>
<p>Mine was just random, and the only questions I was asked was whether I wanted to live in a single or double and what dorm configuration I wanted. Since I am a transfer student, my only choice of dorm configuration when I chose “double” was suite-style.</p>
<p>Lots of colleges have a “class of 20whatever” facebook page. You can write a post about yourself, and ask people to message you if they’d like to room with you. That’s how I found my roommate for next year.</p>
