LIM Class of 2017 Roommate Finder

What qualities should I look for in a potential roommate at Laboratory Institute of Merchandising? Aside from shared interests in fashion and merchandising, it's important to look for compatible lifestyles and study habits. Consider whether you prefer someone who is outgoing or introverted, messy or organized, and able to maintain a similar schedule to yours. How can I gauge a potential roommate's cleanliness habits before committing to living together at Laboratory Institute of Merchandising? Ask them about their personal hygiene routines and how frequently they clean their living space. You could also arrange to visit their current living space to observe their level of cleanliness. At LIM, you can also reach out to the Office of Residential Life for resources and guidance on living with a roommate. Should I be concerned about finding a roommate at Laboratory Institute of Merchandising who has a different sleep schedule than me? As long as both parties are respectful of each other's schedules, it shouldn't be a major issue. However, if you have vastly different sleep schedules that will impede on each other's ability to study or rest, it may be worth re-considering. At LIM, you can speak with a housing advisor for guidance on potential conflicts and how to address them in a roommate agreement.
