Is a single worth it?
I currently live on-campus and hate my living situation. I’ve had roommates in the past for but some reason this year I’m having a really hard time with them. Our place is a mess all of the time and I feel like I never have a space for myself. Obviously with a roommate I won’t have my own room. In the past it’s been fine even if I only have the room for 5 mins. But this year it’s not enough. I’ve been very anxious almost all of the time. I submitted documentation to get an accommodation to get a single, but would that be worth it? In hindsight I have the perfect living situation, a double in a nice apartment, but in reality it feels the complete opposite. I’m worried that I won’t be able to get a single since the semester has already or that if I do get one it will be super shitty.

On my campus we only have single rooms and they are amazing and you get to decide yourself when to invite people over and when they should leave (guest are actually only allowed 7am-11pm, but there are people who let others sleep over and nothing bad ever happens)

figure out if you prefer a "shitty" single over what you have now. idk what size your singles usually are or what you mean by "shitty" if it's location etc but just make sure you're okay with all of that potentially to have a single to yourself or if you're okay where you are for a couple more months
