DS had a roommate survey, and freshman year his roommate and he had opposite habits. At first we couldn’t figure out how they could think they were compatible, but it all worked out - they were never close, but were fine living together. Roommate was messy, but accommodating about putting on headphones and having screens away from DS late at night (it was an oddly shaped room, with beds almost perpendicular).

Definitely talk to someone in your dorm (student leader, dorm parent, etc.) - maybe even just sitting down to talk about it with a neutral 3rd party person will help.
