If you have a group of friends you'd like to live with, you'll have to connect in this step to ensure you can pick a space together. Roommates in apartment/suite style housing can be any gender. Students must have a completed Housing and Meal Plan Contract on file in order to be searchable as a roommate. If you want to choose as an individual, that's an option as well.
