Hey guys,
I just found out that I got off the waitlist for housing and was assigned a dorm room. I’ll need to trade residential colleges though. On the other hand, I’m almost done with my apartment search and have the option of affordable, alright off campus living.

Would you guys recommend I take the on campus offer? Is living on campus worth the extra cost? Is it an experience I should have? (I can go off campus next year, and my fifth year)

Some background: 20 year old jr transfer, has previously lived in a house with housemates
