How to: Roommates

CP 101: Learn by Listening is your tell-all guide to how to get the most out of your Cal Poly experience. As winter quarter ensues, students scramble to find housing for the upcoming school year. We endlessly scroll through Zillow, schedule house tours, and contact landlords in hopes of securing a lease. Finding housing also means finding a roommate! Roommates are a staple to your college experience.

In this episode, Emma and Jordan will talk about how to find a roommate and how to establish some ground rules once you do! If you’re lucky, you’ll end up with a best friend, but if not, the girls will give some advice on how to deal with a less-than-ideal roommate.
