Getting top housing choices

What do you do if you apply to more than one res college? Like say Hinman and Slivka? I’ve heavily scrutinized the normal dorm options, and have found that I really don’t like any of them (I actually don’t like the res colleges that much either; I’m quite displeased with the housing options at NU compared to other schools I turned down) and would much prefer a res college. But of course, most res colleges have themes, and it’s pretty tough to write an essay that appeals to a variety of res colleges with different themes. So, advice anyone?
