Hi ladies,
I'm transferring schools in the fall and unfortunately found out I have to live in my new university's dorms for at least a year (until I have enough credits for senior status - even though technically, in my new program, I will be starting as a freshman). Here's my problem, I can't decide what I want to do for housing.
My school does offer single rooms and it sounds like I have a decent shot at getting one because of all the credits I'll be coming in with, but at the same time, I'm a little concerned I'll get lonely. Don't get me wrong, a single sounds great. I've had a love/hate relationship with my past roommates (we are on good terms though - one of them is a very close friend) and this year, I've been living with 6 loud, crazy, party animal ones in an off-campus house.
However, at the same time, I'm coming to a new school where I will know nobody. I've joined my school's incoming class Facebook group, but I get the feeling that no one wants to room with the 20 year old transfer student (even though if they really thought it through, I will be 21 in October - which generally means alcohol is allowed to be kept in the room....not pointing this out online though because I don't want my future school to see). I don't know what to do and I'm already getting a little stressed. Any thoughts on this?
p.s.
It seems like there's enough college ladies on here, I vote we get a "School/Academics" subforum.
