I go to UC Davis and lived in a dorm last year; my building was full of transfer students (no freshmen in Webster Hall for the 2011-2012 year), so there was no awkwardness of having freshmen around (I did, however, have noisy neighbors upstairs. Apparently, the suite above me was the only known noisy suite in all of Webster). I made friends pretty easily with my roommate and suitemates. I don’t know what you mean when you said being able to do your own laundry in an apartment was an advantage–we had to do our own laundry in the dorms as well. Only difference is that the laundry machines in apartments are coin-operated, while the laundry machines in the dorms were card-operated.
