<p>I'm just wondering if I can choose a roommate who has the same major as I do. It would be a lot easier to socialize if we had similar interests.</p>
<p>If you know someone specifically you can request to room with them. As far as I know, you can’t request to be with someone random who has the same major, but it never hurts to try, might as well call housing.</p>
<p>theres a program that does this for engineers, but thats the only major.</p>
<p>^ What program is that?</p>

<p>There’s East Hall, part of Tolbert community.</p>
<p>[Academic</a> Initiatives & Enhancement >> East Hall Engineering Community](<a href=“http://www.housing.ufl.edu/aie/aie_east.html]Academic”>http://www.housing.ufl.edu/aie/aie_east.html)</p>

<p>2 options: you request someone and you both put either others UFID #'s or you try to live in a learning community hall (artsy stuff in reid? and engineering in east?). </p>
<p>Other than that, you cant request a roommate.</p>
<p>unless of course a humanities major decides east hall as #1 choice</p>
<p>

<p>Yep, always possible. You can even switch rooms, if you parents have the right last name.</p>
