I did this. I was able to pay my own way with jobs and loans and scholarships, but my debt was minor when I graduated. No other way I could have gone as my parents had nothing extra to spare.

I’d prefer my kids to get to live away as I did miss that experience, but I’d not give it a second thought if money was an issue. I turned out perfectly fine and while it is a neat experience to live in a dorm, its not going to adversely impact you to do otherwise. Much better things could be spent with that money.
