Summary:
This 2,250-word article explains the differences between dormitories/residence halls and on-campus apartments. It addresses individual needs of students as well as resources, activities and other advantages of each option. While this article is targeted at freshmen, it also gives upperclassmen valuable information about the advantages of switching from one type of housing to the other.

WHICH UNIT TO PICK

Now that you know whether you prefer a dorm or apartment, you must narrow down your options. Factors to consider, all of which can be tracked down at your school"s Housing Office Web site, include:

-Price per month/semester. When factoring, include meal-plan rates, any bills that you are responsible for paying (such as cable TV), and laundry costs. Some apartments actually include a washer and dryer in each unit for a few extra dollars per month, which is often cheaper than feeding quarters into a machine that you must share with fifty other students.

-Available appliances. Some dorms provide you with a mini-fridge; others require that you bring your own. Apartments can include microwaves. Use the new information to make a list of what you have to bring along and what can stay at home.
