I'm guessing they aren't, but are the individual suites co-ed, or just the building itself?

The suites are no longer co-ed; they used to be tho.

You have to contact Housing and Conference Services. It appears there is a way to do it, but you need to contact them instead of listing a friend as per the normal application.
Check out the link here" http://housing.mcmaster.ca/Residence...ommate s.html

I have nooo idea.
I suppose during normal buisness hours (9-4ish) you could call them? That may work out better. Just call 905-525-9140. Then '0' to get the the operator, and ask for Residence Admissions.

i'm going into first year this september. i'm going to be applying to residence with a friend, and keyes will be our first choice. i heard that our chances of getting in are partially based on marks. is this true? and if so, would low 90s make the cut?

I think kenvin is right....when you have a 95% or higher, you have a high chance of getting a single room, but even this I think only guarantees you a single room, but in no particular building.
And if you have below 95%, everything is left to chance.

Ya thats me...why...you gotta problem with the way I look??!! lol jk
I dunno about res pics. If you've checked out the "building information" on the Mac website, that about all there is from what ive seen. They have virtual tours for some of the residences, but there not very detailed.
I highly recommend booking actual tours for the residences your really interested in. I know from personal experience that it gives you a WAYYYY better sense of the res if you see it in person than the low resolution pictures on the internet.
