Who suits campus dorms

First-years on a budget who want to be near class. Cheaper and safer, but expect curfews, visitor rules, and shared rooms.

Who suits off-campus

Anyone wanting privacy, pets, or their own kitchen. Costs more but total freedom — pick buildings with keycard access and CCTV.

Check before deciding

  • Actual walking/riding distance to your faculty
  • Food options and convenience stores nearby
  • How safe the walk home feels at night
