<p>While filling out my housing application I’m yet to come across a roomate survey thingy, where they ask basic questions on lifestyle and living preferences? Do we ever fill one out, or are we just arbitrarily placed with someone?</p>
<p>Unfortunately, there isn’t one. Though it isn’t impossible to change roommates during the year if you end up with someone really bad. Also, during the first week or two, you fill out a roommate/suite agreement form which kinda sets the standards/compromises of living together.</p>
<p>If you need to change roommates later in the year, I don’t think it’s too hard. When I went to decision day, the RA who was leading our housing tour told us that she filed a request for a room change, and student housing services switched her into another room later that same day.</p>
