Rensselaer Polytechnic NROTC Roommate Search

I agree with what the previous posts states. However, as another option, has your child looked into some of the social medial sites set up for students to meet each other. I know my DD was chatting with other incoming students until she decided to rule out Rensselear.
 
Also, it's OK not to have a NROTC roommate. My son is about to graduate/commission and has been living in dorms for 4 years with non-NROTC roommates.
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try the facebook group for incoming students and have her look for a fb group for nrotc class of .... students entering her year. The unit may not yet know who will be entering as freshman just yet. As an aside, my dd had other nrotc rommates her first 2 years. In my opinion, it is helpful to have another roommate in the unit, as you both have to be up early to attend PT, unit events, etc, so you may be more respectful of each other's need to sleep early, rise early etc. I think it was also helpful for the emotional support that the other person understands what you are experiencing. And as a bonus, if she has long hair, it is always helpful in the beginning to have help getting the hair slicked back into that bun!
 
Speaking as someone from the unit, most people here have a ROTC roommmate. Unit staff will connect you to the appropriate people! Best of luck in the future at one of the best units in the country!!
