I’m not even very shy and I think the idea of sleeping in a room with strangers is a bit awkward.

Now that I think about it, I realize my son chose a school at which he did not do an overnight. Probably a good thing; that school has now ended its overnight program; I guess they lost more than they gained.

Staying in a dorm with a stranger, without your own stuff, without knowing what is expected of you–sounds like a recipe for a negative impression of a school that might actually be a good fit.
