englandern:
cornellperza, that is correct, there is guaranteed housing.
and of course, it is not mandatory to live on campus.
probably not mandatory at any college in the whole country.
in fact, a lot of internationals who have lived on their own or at boarding school, etc, and have the money, would not put themselves in a dorm environment and often rent off campus. Harvard and Yale (and cornell) also have students that live locally and commute starting with freshman year.
Can you even think about a school telling an adult that thay are forced to live somewhere and getting away with it? Maybe at communist U, not any american college. It is a college, not confinement. Most students are adults. Many have lived on their own and at boarding schools before going to college.
If I had the money and could rent something real nice, I would think about living off campus starting freshman year, it is still easy to make friends and also easier to XXXX when you have your own off campus apartment.
can’t argue with that. but don’t have the money…
Calm down, I stated, “As far as I know.” There’s no need for you to get all worked up over a policy that I wasn’t even sure was in place. Obviously, I stand corrected, but there’s no need for you to go all out to prove your point. And there are colleges where it is mandatory for freshmen to live on campus. That I am 100% sure of.</p>
