<p>I'm looking for an apartment for next year, and I'm considering finding a grad student as a roommate. I'll be an undergrad sophomore. I figure the best roommate would be a mature one who's usually busy or not there. I'd consider myself pretty mature for my age.</p>
<p>Any thoughts on this?</p>
<p>It sounds nice and all to room with a grad student, but why would a grad student want to room with YOU?</p>
<p>^Yeah. But if they don’t mind and you don’t mind, there shouldn’t be a problem.</p>
<p>" It sounds nice and all to room with a grad student, but why would a grad student want to room with YOU? "</p>
<p>My thoughts as well. I have some friends that are grad students and I could see rooming with a few of them, others maybe not so much.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Just gonna say that my friends in grad school can easily be just as rowdy as my friends in undergrad.</p>
<p>Although I don’t see a problem with this in theory, I wouldn’t count on the grad student not being around much. They may actually be around more. You know, studying, writing super long papers, the like. Depends on the student. </p>
<p>But again, no problem in theory. Don’t make any assumptions about a person…after all you are asking them to not make any assumptions about you :). And make sure it’s a two-way street, otherwise you’re bound to have a lot of conflicts. If you’re looking for somebody super studious and serious, you should be super studious and serious yourself.</p>
