Moving into a college dorm or shared apartment can be exciting, but meeting a new roommate can also feel a little intimidating. Whether you’re a first-year student at West Virginia University in Morgantown, a transfer student heading to Fairmont State, or starting a program at Marshall University in Huntington, building a good relationship with your roommate can make your living experience more enjoyable and less stressful.
Start With a Friendly Introduction
First impressions matter. Take time to introduce yourself when you first meet. Share a little bit about where you’re from, what you’re studying, and your interests. If you’re attending a West Virginia college, you might find a shared connection through local sports, music, or favorite spots like Coopers Rock or Summersville Lake.
