I am in the process of going to be living on campus. I have never done that before. It would be nice to have a dorm but then I am very picky. I love to cook my meal and everything and know what I cook. When you in a Dorm all you get micorwave stuff and I am not like that. Sharea community bathroom and etc. I would prefer my own room and my own bathroom or at least share a bathroom with another person. Which would you prefer the crowded less space in a Dorm ,, or more space more room...in your apt.

Apartments on campus seems to be the preferred choice. There is a lot more space and there is even a kitchen. I lived in the dorms and it was very crowded and we were always under surveillance by our resident adviser. I've visited a friend's apartment and they have so much fun there. There is more freedom on the apartments and you feel more mature because it actually feels like you are an adult now with your own free space.

i would always prefer my own room, more space, definitely NOT a share a bathroom with a person not close to me or not a family member. i am not that picky, but if i have a choice, the one above is what i would want. but if there is NO other choice, then i think i just have to go with it, and not think about what i want, instead concentrate on the reason why i was there, i.e. studying.

During my college days, i havent tried going to either dorm or an apartment. Our home is just a few minutes away (actually you can just walk) from our campus. I just experience going to a dormitory when i started to work. we were provided with a dormitory. we were only 4 inside the room (bathroom included inside the room). however, we cannot cook our own food because there are no space for cooking or having a kitchen. we have a canteen that provides our food for free.however, you have to be patient regarding the food and the menu for the day. I would rather prefer to have an apartment where can accomodate at most 5 persons so you have somebody with you to pay the rent for apartment.
