Why live on campus?
• You will make friends and memories. By walking through the lobby or down the hall, you’ll meet people from around the world. You’ll attend cultural and athletic events with hallmates. You’ll be able to form study groups and join intramural teams. It will not be long before you make new friends and memories that will last a lifetime. • You are likely to make better grades. In general, residence hall students earn higher grades than students who live off campus. As an on-campus resident, it will be easier to study with people from your classes, access academic resources such as the Academic Development Center and Davis Library, and learn important skills from residence hall programs. • You will probably pay less. Living on campus is typically less expensive than living off campus. Sometimes it is much less. Additionally, residence hall charges are paid in a lump sum each semester, so you don’t have to worry about monthly rent, utility bills or a 12-month lease.
