Well, I emailed my roommate (the one moving in on the 18th) and asked her if I could stay overnight as her guest instead of at the hotel. She says that's totally fine (if she said no, frankly I'd be a little nervous about being her roommate!), and is going to call me when she gets the keys and all to let me in. Hopefully it's early enough that I can throw some of my stuff in the apartment, so it's not sitting in my car all day and overnight.
One thing did bother me slightly though- she asked if I am bringing a car to campus, because she is not. She said she just joined Sam's Club and wants to make trips there, but has no car. I didn't think of this before, but I really hope that I am not the only roommate with a car and that she doesn't ask me to drive her there alllll the time. That would be really annoying, not to mention it would blow my already tight budget!

I'm glad to hear that she's going to let you stay there, but the car question would make me a little nervous too. Now that she feels like she's doing you a favor I hope she's not going to expect you to let her use your car or drive her around. Hope it works out!
Good call on asking her to let you stay. Glad that worked out.
As far as driving her to Sams club to stock up once or twice, I consider that reasonable. But, I suggest you maybe drive her to the public transit authority as well to get a bus or train schedule on your way.
how many times do you think she'll want to go to Sam's Club?!
