[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Advice: find out process for requesting accommodations. Get doctors note if needed to justify AC based on asthma or whatever. Submit for room change. [/quote]

I think a housing accommodation is what it is going to take for any substantive change.

I’m just so disappointed in DC for not filing the housing change request right away-I would have never accepted such a raw deal without a fight. [/quote]
A single as a freshman is a pretty amazing position to be in. Nothing raw about this deal.[/quote]
If can be difficult for some people who are shy and don't do well trying to find a group.  Having a roommate can sometimes help.

Of course, if you have  a terrible roommate, it's awesome to have  a single.

But, if OP's DC didn't request a change immediately, then maybe they aren't as concerned about this as the parent.  [/quote]
I'm old fashioned. Prop open your door for the first few weeks, and people will start up a conversation if the college has any friendly students in it. There's very little advantage to having a roommate. The kid got into a great college with a lot of money according to OP so they'll be fine.[/quote]
