| Most upperclassmen students tend to live in apartments because they don't feel like dealing with a bunch of freshman. It is a big difference moving in as a transfer or freshman. You want to be in a position where you are around people your age, the dorms would be a better idea if you are going to be a freshman because you will be able to meet more people and will probably be happier. The happier you are the better you will probably do in school, I'd highly recommend sitting your dad down and explaining there will be just as much distraction in an apartment-if not more. |
