You should immediately put in a request for a change. However, I doubt they will do much until this first round of assignments is taken care of. Then there might be a chance (very slim, I think) that they will re-assign you later in the summer, if there are openings. But I think the likelihood is that you will be put on a waitlist for room change which they (Housing) will consider after the first three weeks of school when they would then have taken a final inventory of rooms available and where.

You can submit a room/ dorm change request, if you do not mind possibly moving three weeks into the semester or a little later, and if there would even be triples available in Rubin.

My suspicion is that many have requested Rubin triples based on the low cost option, which is the one type of dorm room offering a substantial saving over the other dorm options.
