What if my child doesnt like his or her roommate?
Learning to live with differences, good communication, and being open to compromise, are key to a positive roommate experience. Members of the residence life staff are especially trained to assist students who may have roommate problems, and it is important that students seek out these individuals as soon as possible. In those instances in which differences cannot be worked through, most colleges do allow students to request a roommate change after a designated period of time. Students need to seek out information about policies and deadlines.
