In agreement with the previous two posters. I lived in a suite with 7 other guys (4 doubles) this past year and it was beyond awesome. Basically like our own party room. To be honest, while it would have been nice to have privacy at some times, living in close quarters really fostered great late-night conversations, both drunk and sober. Most people at Rice learn to live with the hand they’ve been dealt, as far as the housing situation, so I wouldn’t sweat it too much.

Also, don’t underestimate the roommate matching process that O-Week Coordinators do. The questionnaire is fun and is a lot more detailed than other colleges’ selection process. Sure, you can’t guarantee 100% satisfaction, but it’s pretty uncommon for people to switch roommates freshman year.
