Within the first few weeks of moving in, roommates should plan a time to meet and discuss their Roommate Agreement. This is a set of “house rules” for your unit. Your RA can assist with this conversation and offer advice on helpful topics and rules.
Compromise is a crucial piece of living with roommates. It is important to have an honest conversation about things in which you may need to compromise, such as room temperature, common area chores, cleaning schedule, noise levels in the morning or night, and having visitors.
