My Dorm Room Is Unlivable. I'm Sleeping In My Car And Still Paying And Nothing Is Being Done.

Location: Texas

I'm living in a dorm room and my roommate is incredibly loud. I mean loud to the point that people in rooms nearby have complained. She is either talking to people loudly, gaming, or sometimes even playing guitar and singing at literally all hours of the night. I've talked to her, my RA, my RD, multiple times and it always ends with just asking her to be quieter and nothing gets better.

My grades have literally been dropping from sleep deprivation. I don't have anyone else to stay with, and I can't sleep (even earplugs, noise machines, etc aren't enough). So I've been sleeping in my car for a week. I'm not sure if there's a legal issue here or something to be done, but it doesn't seem fair that I'm paying thousands to live somewhere and am not even able to sleep there. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Update: Thanks all for the quick advice! I think I will go to the dean of student affairs office today if I can and try to file a report. If things don't change immediately, I will definitely try to compile a record of everything that's happened and bother people higher up. Will update when everything gets sorted out.
