<p>is this good to select a single room or double room as freshmen?</p>
<p>Double room is cheaper. Single room has more privacy.
Need to work out with roommate in double. Single can be lonely at a time.</p>
<p>Any comments and experience</p>
<p>Get a single if you can. You can leave the door open & people will stop in.. but you can shut the door when you just want to be left alone.</p>
<p>get a double, uve probably had your own room your whole life. its college, try something different. have fun!</p>
<p>It depends on what you want. Duh.</p>
<p>It seems like many people on this board reccomend a single dorm. This is in my opinion, and in the opinion of the majority of those who I have talked, bad advice. Perhaps it is just a sample of the types of students on CC, but the potential benefits of living with a roomie far outweigh the possible downsides. You will all have to learn to interact and get along with people eventually. When you live with a roommate you can potentially find a great friend, but you will definitely enhance your social experience. Your social circle will double with your roomies friends coming over too, and you will meet many more people. I second the above advice though, definitely always keep your door open, people will stop by and chill and life will be cool.</p>
<p>Go for the double. Try something new. I lived with 3 girls my first semester here, two for the first two weeks of this semester, and now I'm finally in a double. Yeah, it can be hard living with other people, but it can be so much fun, and you learn a lot. I actually like having a roommate.</p>
<p>thanks a lot everyone. I'm only a junior in high school. I'm applying colleges in the fall. I will have a precollege summer program living in a double room coming up in June. But the summer residential program has a curfew. So, things will work out. I'm always wonder how's the dorm life as freshmen. Currently, my younger brother comes into my room to study. But we dont talk that much. I have all the spaces to myself. I always live as single in my life. No distraction. The only distraction is my parents come into my room. How can you handle the roommate situation when u really want to study, or want to sleep? What happen if the roommate blasts the stereo to the max and I want quiet time. Can I survive the dorm life? I mean time to social and time to study.</p>
