How hard is it to swap roommates?

So I’ve found a girl I want to room with, but I accidentally signed up late for housing and now I have to go random. We were hoping that once roommates are assigned, we could swap so that we’re together. Do you think if she went random too, both girls would be willing to do so (since it’s random anyway), or should we find someone specific who definitely wants to go random to room with her and then swap with me later? Any advice on how difficult this process would be, and any idea on when the potential swap would take place?
