Is it worth it to live here.

Pros
Single (high priority)
on-campus (convenience)
Dining Dollars… (convenience)
(i dislike cooking… >_>)

Cons
Expensive! (10K but with dining plan)
Not sure if it is loud but I do hear they throw some nice parties…

I figure if I do get a nice place off campus I could see myself only spending roughly $500-800 a month which means I could potentially be saving quite a bit of money (~$3000+) However, I do enjoy the perks of living on-campus and I don’t mind eating at the dining dollars, as long as I don’t have to cook. For those of you who have lived in I-house or even transfer housing their 3rd or 4th year, how is it? From what I gauge, it should be similar to the first 2 years of dorm/apt life. Conversely for those of you who live off campus, is it a hassle to get to and from school or is it something that you get use to.
Probably won’t have a car next year if that matters… planning on using my bike anyways.

Thanks in advance.
