Can students request a particular roommate?
Yes. We make every effort to honor mutual roommate requests on a space-available basis. However, as the beginning of the academic year approaches, it is more difficult for us to find spaces together for late applicants. We encourage students who want to room together to apply early, notify us of their mutual requests, and give us flexibility in terms of preferred hall assignment. Each year students who meet during the CUSTOMS program come to us with requests to be matched as roommates, and we try to accommodate these requests to the best of our ability.
