<p>So my friend says that everyone applies for housing and is then randomized. I want to dorm with my friend, who is set on UIUC, but I'm still waiting back for three more college decisions. I'm fairly sure (95%) that I will be going to UIUC, since my chances of getting into any of the schools for regular decision are slim-to-none. Will I be able to hold off on applying for housing until April (I haven't even accepted my offer of admission yet), and then ask to be housed with my friend in mid-April?</p>
<p>Thanks,
Vinay</p>
