Hey Product Hunt! I'm Lindsay, a college student at Duke and the founder of RoomieU. The idea came from my own experience. Freshman year, Duke randomly assigns everyone roommates with completely different sleep schedules, study habits, and living preferences, which made for a really tough year. I also noticed that many of my friends from high school ran into similar problems and if they were able to choose their roommates they did not know where to look. So I built RoomieU, a platform where college students can find roommates at their own school based on actual compatibility, not luck. I'd love to hear from anyone who has been through the college roommate search. What was your experience like? And if you're a college student, sign up free at roomieu.com, I'm actively building this with student feedback in mind!

This is great! Is this USA only?

Hi Andrzej, for right now it is only USA, but we plan to expand to international universities as well! @andrzej_zarod

I like the idea with school-specific matching. Generic platforms usually fail because you end up matched with someone on the other side of the country. But it also means you need enough students using it at each school for the matches to actually be useful. How are you thinking about rolling it out campus by campus? Starting with Duke makes sense, but going from the first school to the second is often where things get hard. Congrats on the launch!
