I finally just got all the financials I need and was able to sign up for school. I'll be staying at a university dorm and I know the name and email of my roommate already. My step dad said to email him asap to get to know him and discuss whose bringing what.
I'm very introverted and only have a few friends who I've had for a long time so I don't really know how to get this started.
What should I say in a situation like this?
Also any tips for a newcomer to dorm life and being away from home?

Just chill, don't get so nervous and be friendly with everyone.
Get interested in people's hobbies and join them, just relax.

I've been in your shoes. I was homeschooled and then moved to the forms, was pretty nervous about it going into it. My first roommate on the other hand was a high school quarterback. People tend to be really friendly in the dorms, so welcome your new dorm mates openly and be friendly. Don't ever close your door unless you're changing clothes, banging a girl, or sleeping. (I almost never studied in the dorms because it was too loud and inviting/distracting).
If you're invited to go to something, go. It's the fastest way to making friends, and people are usually very friendly towards the people who live with them.

"Hey, ______.
Looks like I'll be your roommate this year. You want to start talking about how we're going to set up the room? I'll be able to bring/I am definitely bringing ______ (utilities, tv, game system, etc.). Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Sincerely,
Anon"
