Hey everyone, I am an incoming freshman at UCI, planning to live on campus. I have been looking for roommates to mutually request for a quad room, but I am not sure if my being nonbinary will affect the housing preferences process. I am biologically female and have gender and gender identity set as nonbinary. I found some female acquaintances that are also looking to live together in a quad, but I am unclear if we will have to opt-in for “gender-inclusive“ (from what I have read about the housing preferences) in order to room together, or if mutual request is enough. I have not contacted them yet about my interest because I need to know if we will need to do anything different to accommodate me.
I emailed Housing yesterday about what I should do, but they did not really answer my questions. I followed up for some more clarification but will have to wait next week to hear back from them. Can anyone help me with this? Please let me know if more information is needed. Thanks in advance.
