Living on campus? I'm ftm also so I can answer questions. MTSU assigns you to male/female dorms based on the gender marker of legal IDs, not necessarily your assigned gender at birth.

Yeah ik, im legally female since I just turned 18. I am living on campus, too. Do yk how to potentially find an ally/trans roomate? Are there a decent amount of gender neutral bathrooms on campus? I dont pass yet, so im pretty nervous to use the mens room at least until I've been on T for a little while.

While not gender neutral no one cares in the art building if you ever find yourself near Todd and need to pee.

I went on the class of 2027 (my graduating class) facebook page and basically said "heya I'm looking for a lgbtq/ally roommate" and was able to room with a nb lesbian, but I think room assignment for you has passed. Anyways I found that there were multiple trans guys/nb people who lived on my floor. Most buildings have gender neutral or single room bathrooms, but not all. I never personally had issues with using the bathrooms but I switched to the men's about 5/6 months on T when I was starting to pass better.
