Talk to them before you meet them in person.

Rules should include

-How loud can you be and when you have to be quiet
-If you don't have similar taste in music, keep it down or use headphones
-Whether or not you can drink in your room, leave empties lying around, etc.
-How to signal to your roommate that you're busy fucking and they shouldn't come in (lock the door regardless of the signal
-Policies on having other people (freinds, SO's, etc.) in the room - time, duration, etc.
-Establish a quiet timefor studying separate from sleep time
-Neither of you can touch each other's stuff without permission unless you have to move it to get to your own sutff.
-How clean to keep the room and how to do that, you don't want dirty laundry lying aroun stinking it up
-Alibi list to use when one of you needs to prove to the cops that you were not at the scene of whatever you did.

There's a short list to get you started
