How exactly does the housing app/roommate assignments work?

<p>I know we can change our building preferences until May 4th, but what I'm a little confused about are the roommate requests. If we accept a request does that mean USC Housing will try to put us together? In that case, are we allowed to accept more than 1 request to create a list of possible matches that the Housing people would try to follow? </p>

<p>Thanks for clarifying! :)</p>

<p>if you want someone to be your roommate, you both have to accept each other and make sure your housing preferences are EXACTLY the same… if you do this w/ more than one person, i’m not sure what happens.</p>
