RISD Residence LifeGender Inclusive Housing Policy
- We do not restrict roommate pairings based on sex, gender identity or gender expression. This means that any student can choose to live with one another, regardless of sex, gender identity or gender expression, in a shared room. However, the Residence Life Office will only honor a request mutually made by all parties.
- If you are interested in gender inclusive housing option we can provide you with a personal and confidential assessment of the available options. Please email Associate Director for Housing Operations; Anu Meschisen at ameschis@risd.edu.
