You never know a person until you have lived with them. As you decide on who to live please keep the following in mind:

• Be honest about your expectations concerning your living space like, study times, guests/visitors, sharing items, etc. and communicate them to those you live with
• Be open to learning something new about those you live with
• Be flexible and willing to compromise when differences arise with those you live with
• Your Resident Advisor will supply you with a roommate agreement to discuss the above and more with those you live with

Sometimes it is difficult for roommates to talk about their differences but your Resident Advisor is there to help. Should issues arise in your room with your roommates you can sit down with the staff so that you can discuss them together. With a little give and take, you can each adjust accordingly and make your environment comfortable. In the event a room change is the result of the conversation the staff can assist you with that as well.
