Nope, sorry! As a freshman everyone has to share the floor bathroom. No exceptions! but don't worry as you get to be an upperclassman you can live in a duplex (as I do) with three other people and share a bathroom. But it isn't as bad as it seems!
You either get college street, Bishop Roberts, Longden, Humbert, Hogate or Lucy. DONT GO COLLEGE STREET OR HOGATE. BR is small rooms, everywhere else is good. Living with the opposite sex really isn't a problem at all and its nice to get close to both guys and girls, but if you're really against it you can preference to live on an all girls floor. Bathrooms are not coed.
Okay. Thank you! How are the bathrooms not coed, if the halls are?
Are there any more options other than individual or doubles?
There are certain bathrooms designated only for one particular sex and it is usually divided into wings sometimes like in Hogate or sometimes in BR. Sometimes they have quads or triples in Longden.

All first-year students are required to live in dorms on campus, which is definitely helpful for adjusting to campus life and building a sense of belonging and community. DePauw has two areas where most dorms are located: South Quad and North Quad. South Quad is all freshman housing and where most of the first-year fun goes down. North Quadders are often forgotten on the freshman scene. These students are in close proximity to the Hub and have large rooms, but they are sometimes distanced from their peers. The last option, outside of the realm of both North and South Quad, is Bloomington Street-though in most students' opinions, those are the dorms to avoid.
On a whole, location aside, the dorms are pretty well maintained and inviting. Dorm bathrooms and common areas are cleaned weekly by University cleaning staff. The lack of private bathrooms is a complaint for some students, and most wish the rooms were larger, but they are very inhabitable, and most would say, cozy. Each student is given a preference sheet when accepted to DePauw that asks questions about living styles in order to pair students with roommates and housing. Most students get one of their top three choices. Your best bets for housing are Longden, Humbert, or Bishop Roberts.
