If you would like to participate, you can complete the roommate placement form built into your application. The form allows you to make notes of any friends applying at Northside that you would like to live with. Please ensure you provide the same name being used on your roommate's application to ensure your request is processed in a timely manner. The form also asks you to input your hobbies, interests, sleep routines, pet preferences, and study habits.
