Accomodation

On campus accommodation v/s off campus accommodation

Whether to live on campus or off campus is an important decision that a student has to make during the process of making decision related to the days in the college.

Living in the campus would save you the transportation cost and it will be hassle free. You would be able to simply walk to your classes, dorms and labs and will not have to care about the gas cost. You do not have to worry about parking and this makes your life pretty easy to some extent as your accessibility to the university or college smoothens.

Now, consider the not so rosy picture of living on campus. You would have little or no privacy in the dorms as there would be activity going on in your dorm room and always someone somehow would be hanging around. This would offer you very little privacy. Dorms are generally small rooms where you can’t bring in your extra stuff since there is very less room to accommodate your things as well as that of your roommate.

Hence, now having known the pros and cons of living both in campus and off campus it is for you to decide which option to choose. It would depend on your priorities and on the type of person you are, how social you are and how much you prefer to mingle with the crowd. Whatever your decision may be, always remember that you are in college to accomplish something and the decision about accommodation which you will make should reflect this and help you accomplish all your goals.
