Does SUNY New Paltz allow opposite-sex roommates?

My boyfriend and I might end up going to the same school…I was wondering if anyone knew SUNY New Paltz’s policy about choosing an opposite-sex roommate.

There ARE about 20 colleges that allow same-sex roommates:

I strongly doubt that New Paltz is one of those schools, but you can call the office of residence life and ask:

Phone: (845) 257-4444

The floors are coed, though, and if one of you gets a single, you can pretty much stay together whenever you’d like. But trust me–it’s not that big a deal if you can’t live together.

I believe all Suny New Paltz freshman must live on campus unless they’re commuting from home, so getting an off-campus apartment is probably out.

Phone: (845) 257-4444. Thats the office of Residence Life for SUNY New Paltz. Call there and most likely they should tell you. Good luck in college.

here is the site to the housing at new paltz, none of the residences state that you can have opposite sex roommates but you can read it more thoroughly yourself

One phone call to the administrator in charge of housing would answer that question in much less time than it would take to get an answer here. *And* you would be sure that the information is accurate.

Many colleges do have co-ed dormitories, so you could at least be in the same building.

I’m going to say that there is probably no chance. You could request to be in the same building and even on the same floor.

No schools allow opposite sex roommates, no parent in their right mind would send their child to school to live with the opposite sex. If you want to live together that bad, get an apartment off campus.

And to the person below me, you are obviously a high school drop out. Co-Ed Dorms are when guys and girls live on the the same floor, BUT NOT IN THE SAME UNIT!
