Depending upon the school, the decision may be made for you, particularly if they are in different grades. Incoming students generally room with students of the same lass, so the school may not allow them to share the same room the first year, although they may allow it for later years. Indeed, some schools do not allow incoming students to choose their roommates at all in order to give the students more exposure to students outside their clique.

Even if the school allows, I would recommend them not rooming together the first year. Personally, I would put them in different dorms as well.
