Living in a dorm for freshman and sophomore year was an experience to remember. Having a roommate and sharing a bathroom with 30 other girls was...different. Although a lot of good memories were made in the dorms, I'm so glad to be living off campus this year.
No more communal bathrooms
Sharing a bathroom with a bunch of girls on your floor in your dorm makes for a very interesting experience. Usually, it's not the best time of your life. All you can do is cross your fingers and hope people aren't disgusting.
Your own room
Having a roommate isn't so bad if you like them; however, it's not exactly ideal to never have your own space. Living off campus, you get a room all to yourself, and you can make that space your own.
A kitchen
Off-campus housing allows you to live a lovely lifestyle that doesn't include dining halls. Having access to an actual-sized refrigerator, microwave, stove and oven is a real game changer.
Laundry
In a dorm, there are hundreds of people using around eight washing machines and dryers. It's the absolute worst when you finally get yourself motivated to do your laundry and you get there and all the machines are being used. In a house or apartment, access to doing laundry is so much easier.
Parking
If you have a car on campus and you live in a dorm, parking is nearly impossible, and you end up having to park miles away from the building. With off-campus housing, a parking spot is usually part of the deal.
I've only been living off campus for a week, and I'm already having the best time. Freshmen and sophomores, you have a good time waiting for you once you're done in the dorms.
