If you live on campus, you can easily walk to the classes, libraries, puter labs, cafeterias, etc. You don’t have to waste time and money on driving to school, finding a parking space, and so forth. 2. Increased social life. Living on campus will allow you to meet more people and establish more friendships than living off campus. You will also usually be aware of any campus activities and how to be involved in them. Cons1. Little privacy. When living in a dorm, it can be very hard to find your privacy. You have to share bedrooms, bathrooms, etc. You may never have quiet time in your dorm because there will always be something going on. 2. Limited space. At most colleges, the dorm rooms are tiny. You have to limit what you bring to school, or your space will be too crowded. 3. Possible low GPA (grade point average). Because dorm life is very social, your grades may be affected in a negative way. If you constantly choose hanging out with your dorm buddies over studying at the library, then your GPA will suffer.
