Hey guys, I want an honest opinion for other students/graduates out there.

I’m wondering if it’s worth the money to live in a dorm for most/all of my college life.

The reason why I ask is because 1: I want to experience living on my own, 2: I want to become more outgoing, and 3: it’s more than an hour and a half commute from home, to the college I plan on attending.
Also another thing is, the college has a gaming community in it, and it’d be a pain to haul a 32" TV and computer and consoles back and forth in a subcompact.

Also, what are some pros, and cons (aside from price) to living at home vs. dorm?
