Summarize:

Upon arriving to campus, familiarize yourself with the health services on campus. Healthcare on campus is similar to going to the family doctor, but most campuses provide a wider range of health services to students who are transitioning from being a patient to an independent health consumer.  Inquire about potentially free or discounted products for incontinence. Chances are the nurses on campus have encountered students with similar issues, so don’t feel embarrassed about any questions or issues you may have. If you’d like to avoid having to use a public restroom every day, you may want to request a room with a private bathroom. There is no guarantee that the school will be able to honor your request; however, it’s worth asking about.  You’ll need to involve your doctor from home in the process. School guidelines for submitting such a request vary, so check with them once you’ve been admitted to see what their policy is. Don’t wait until you arrive on campus to make the request. It may be that you feel most comfortable having a space of your own. Again, policies will vary by school, but some require that requests be made yearly for such accommodations. You will also need documentation from your family doctor when submitting the request.  Single rooms tend to fill up fast, so make the request early! Consider what living in a single room will mean for your social life. You may also be asked more questions about your medical condition, if you are living alone.
Take advantage of campus health services. Request to have a room with a private bathroom. Inquire about a single dorm.
