No WiFi in dorms as of yet, so you have to use an Ethernet cable for internet. Rooms are small (At least the ones they took us in), not very much storage space [View Full Report]

Dorms were tiny in the East, but not too shabby. Dorms on the West were actually very spacious and nice. [View Full Report]

We visited a traditional dorm which was clean and appeared to be well maintained. We didn't have an opportunity to visit the suite-style dorms. [View Full Report]

Visited East dorm room. Typical dorm, somewhat small. Told by others that the quads are really nice, unfortunately we did not have an opportunity to visit one. [View Full Report]

Freshman dorms definitely need a good overhaul. Very impersonal, despite the college supplied mini frig and microwave. If you don't loft the beds, you and your roommate can't dress at the [View Full Report]

They showed us a sample room in a 70's era building. Not the worst I've seen. [View Full Report]

I saw the East Hall dorms. They were pretty gross, even for freshmen housing. [View Full Report]
