I thought living on-campus would save me commuting time during D1. I honestly don't know what hectic schedule to expect and I thought living on-campus would make life easier.
However, the housing rate is $6,970 for 9-months. That's $774/month. My parents are willing to pay for this and they actually encourage me to stay in the dorms.
I found other rooms on Craigslist that are $550-650/month, both 1-mile away from campus, and I was wondering whether the cost of living in dorms would be worth the convenience of being able to stroll out of bed and get to class in less than 10 minutes?
