Hey all, I’m a current incoming '21. I was wondering how the housing system works at Dartmouth. Can you choose your own roommate freshman year? Can you only live with people in your housing community after freshman year? What do current students think about the new system?
Thanks!
You will fill out a housing survey and will be matched with a roommate.
@anyone23 You will not be able to choose your roommate Freshman year. You will have the same person the entire year. Assignments should appear if I remember correctly during July. Sophomore year you are able to choose your roommate but they must come from your assigned House. As for how the new system is perceived by students the 20s have felt more positive about it than the 16s,17s,18s and 19s reports my daughter.
