I played football for my sixth-form school and I am hoping to join a university team. I'm a morning person and I get up early to train and go to the gym. So I would prefer to share with other people who don't like late nights either! Also I am vegetarian and, if possible, I would prefer to share a kitchen with other non-meat eaters.

Tips

  1. If the form is on paper, write clearly. Use capital letters if your handwriting isn't clear.
  2. If there is not much space to write, make a list instead of writing full sentences.
  3. Check it. It's easy to make small mistakes!

I would like to share a room with people who is not a talkative person because I'm a introvert.

The first thing that I really want to ask you is a room with bathroom in and second thing is quite neighbors, because I become angry and cant concentrate on work or studying process when someone live a loud night life.
Also I prefer to live on-campus, but if there are not available options we can easily solve it! For example: I can leave somewhere else where are good nature, a park and a gym nearby. Yeah, by the way, I like doing any exercises or go running in the morning.

Well, I wouldn't like to share a flat with anyone. But If I have to, I'm a morning person so I would like to share a flat with a person who gets up early in every morning.And I don't smoke so I prefer someone who don't smoke either. But I also want to share a person who smart, funny and intelligent.

I would like to live alone and not to share a flat with anyone. But if I have to, I would choose a quiet and organized person. I am a night owl, so I prefer a roommate who goes to bed late

In general, I don't like to share accommodation with anyone, but if I have to I would like to shear with a calm and organized person. Also, I'm a morning person so I prefer to be with a person who gets to bed early.
