[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t spend a lot on decor before your kid even meets their roommate. It may not work out. Lots of kids change dorm rooms. Also, just take the bare minimum of stuff. Those rooms are tiny! My HS DD is currently doing a summer residential program at a college and it’s been eye opening. So much stuff is just unnecessary. Be a minimalist. [/quote] So this is info you gleaned from a HS summer program? Changing roommates has actually been very difficult in the schools my kids attended. IMO it really depends on the kid. One of mine could’ve cared less. Never decorated a room and going into the third year. Another felt the decor made it feel more like home. If that helps you through freshman year, go for it. OPs job is to give a budget and stay out. [/quote]
