So i heard of Roomsurf but that uses Facebook. Should i trust that i will get a good roommate or should i make a Facebook just for the room surf app. Does Room surf even work… it said it only have like 700,00 students signed up. How do find a good roommate any advice?
I don’t think Room Surf is widely used, but people looking for roommates usually do use Facebook in general. Admitted Vanderbilt students usually create pages for roommate searching (one for guys and one for girls) where people post a little about themselves and what they’re looking for in a roommate.
There’s nothing wrong with going random, tons of people do it.
There’s no guarantee that you will click with your roommate either way. My D did the facebook thing to find a roommate and, although she and her freshman year roommate didn’t really have any problems, they also didn’t end up being friends. One the other hand, two of the girls down the hall who went random did end up being best friends throughout their four years, and my D became close friends with them. You just never know.
