If you’re having trouble with a roommate, it can be difficult to know how or where to get help. There are several ways to seek assistance in improving your roommate situation:

Residential/community managers – some properties where students sign individual leases provide residential/community managers to help you get started or facilitate mediation to reach a mutually agreeable solutions. Reach out to your property to see if this is offered.

UA’s Counseling Center offers help to sort through your thoughts and feelings about a situation before you broach the topic with your roommate. Taking advantage of UA’s skilled professionals can help you feel more peaceful and confident as you navigate a roommate conflict.
