<p>So my D pulled the trigger for Michigan tonight. It wasn't easy as she had great choices but is really excited for Michigan and AA!</p>
<p>Question - if she went into one of the living communities - lets say Lloyds - and meets someone she wants to room with who does not want to be active in that community, can they still live in that assigned dorm together? Or if you go into one do you have to have a roomate who is also part of that group?</p>
<p>I don’t know whether this will help. I am going to apply for the honors program. On their website it is said that the other roommate has to be enrolled in that program. Otherwise they will be assigned a room somewhere else instead of the honors dorm. I don’t whether this will apply to the living communities.</p>
<p>Bigdoglover-congrats on your daughter’s choice. My son is still deciding- I think it’s going to depend on whether he gets accepted into the Honors Program, but who knows? </p>
<p>Soppei- I think that only those who are in the honors housing or RC can live there. I don’t think that general students not in these programs can reside in the special housing, but check the websites for both.</p>
<p>PsychoDad10 That’s what I am talking about. Some dorms require the students enrolled in their program. But if they really want someone to room with but not in that program, both of them will be assigned other dorms. I am just wondering whether the living communities have the same rule.</p>
<p>Thanks PsychoDad - I hope you son chooses Michigan but I know he has great choices as well so no matter what happens good luck.</p>
<p>I’m fairly certain that both roommates need to be in the learning community - they are typically on a hall with everyone in the program.</p>
<p>You should check with the learning community. Some of them do not want the participants to be paired with roommates of their choice and want them to room blind.</p>
