The most popular freshman dorms are West and Warren.
West:
-Newly renovated
-Better dining hall
-Closer to FitRec and Agganis
-Close to CGS, SHA, and CFA
-More campus-y feel
-More out of the way if you are in CAS, ENG, SED, SAR, ect
-Smaller (3 adjacent buildings, all with 13 floors with about 45 students per floor)

Warren:
-More centrally located (right across the street from CAS)
-Bigger (3 connected buildings with 14 floors of rooms, about 50 students per floor)
-Dining Hall isn’t as good
-More places to eat (Starbucks, Olecito, and Subway are right downstairs)
-Less sense of community
-Much older (the rooms and bathrooms aren’t as nice)
-Front door opens onto Comm Ave

There are other smaller buildings too, but these are the most popular.
