As much as I love my parents, idk if I want to live with them

[marcoguirguis_]

No, please, say it louder. Maybe I’ll understand it better

Ah, I regret not spending my freshman year in living on campus, it’s so much better when it comes to social life. Hopefully, I’ll try to move out from my shity apartment to the dorms.

i want to be on campus at least freshman year but i’m claustrophobic af. it’s also gonna drive me crazy that i can’t cook, bake or make a mess lol

Im commuting since I'm only an hour away from my college. I'm a freshman and I start classes Tuesday. Im so excited.

Parents were HUGE distraction for me during college, they don't believe in college so that kind of rubs off on you and they wanted me to drop out and goto work full time. I would move out.

I'm a bit biased. Often living on campus is cheaper because you aren't paying for utility bills. When I was in college, I was able to get my own dorm room due to my disability and reasonable accommodation through the disability center. I liked being close enough to campus where I never had to worry about having a car. I did not worry about 'cooking' because I didn't like cooking to begin with as I usually ate in the dining halls. Though a major con to living on campus that I found is when you constantly have to move even if you went to school year round. I hated having to haul my stuff in the dorm and then having to take all my stuff out after the school year ended. If I were to go back to school and it was away from home, I'd prefer an apartment because at least I can renew my contract each year without having to move out. There are plenty of apartments where they are close enough within walking distance to campus.

My friends are thinking about paying for a 3 bedroom apartment literally right next to the college

[jjjcrown]

I would rather live off campus with friends

[Blueblacktruck]

I don't prefer dorms because they have such a teenage vibe, I'd prefer to rent a studio apartment near the campus and commute rather than having "dorm rules". But sadly, dorms have more social opportunities than flats off-campus 🤷🏼‍♀️

Idk where you are, but at my school it's literally double to triple the cost if you stay on campus bc you are also forced to have a meal plan and parking.

Literally, my dorm sophomore year cost more a month than my parents pay on their mortgage month to month.

I still live with my parents and most of the time my dad isnt home because he works a lot. I love my parents and one day I will live on my own but I gotta trust the process!

I’m kinda In the situation where my family lives really close to campus. I can save money living at home, but is it worth it to dorm at school for the first year. I feel like I need the experience.

[joshuaandino]

The only thing that is stressful is that you kinda HAVE to get a part time job if you live in an apartment when in college. Buy your own bed, table, internet router, etc

So this is my situation: I’m a senior in highschool and I’m preparing for college. My mom told me she’s starting to look into condos I can live in by myself. I value the privacy I will have; however, I am worried about the aspect of making friends. How often as a freshman were you invited to other people’s dorms? I’m thinking that I could possibly make my friends in class and get invited to hangout in their dorms and make friends through that

Why does everyone think that living off campus hinders you from having a good social experience at college? So what if you don't live with other students? There's plenty of time you can spend after classes meeting new people and spending quality time with them. Having a good social life isn't about where you live, it's about how you spend your time and people have made close friendships without livng with their friends, why should that be any different for college? The time you spend meeting and becoming close with the people inside and near your dorm is the same time I could be spending developing close relationships with people hanging out somewhere else on campus. The only difference is you don't get to spend time with a roommate and you have to drive every day but by no means is it as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Your social life is only as good as you make it, don't blame it on where you live. That's just cowardly.

When my time comes I think I'll stay on campus, it's my senior year

[thesharinganknight]
