Who am I assigned to live with? A BSU student? An NTC student?

Your roommate will be matched with you based on the room/floor preferences, smoking preference, and age. If you know of an NTC student that will living in the residence halls, you may certainly list them as your preferred roommate. Roommate requests must be mutual in order for us to place you together.
