<p>Thank you MeKimber and Cotelizard. </p>
<p>We did contact Housing directly and they did offer my D a private room in a couple of dorms. Unfortunately, as an incoming freshman who doesn’t know anybody, this was the last thing she needed! The housing room change process link instructs you to go to UCHOOSE and select option #4. Here you are asked to enter 3 new preferences for rooms/dorms. Although it looked promising, currently the only choices available in the list were for private rooms. I am assuming that in the next couple of days, as more students opt for room changes, the list will provide more options.</p>
<p>In the meantime I am encouraging my D to contact her potential roommate and make a connection. I personally think that the right roommate is far more important than the dorm. (Just for the record though…my D did not get any of her original 5 dorm requests.)</p>
