Nothing in the world is quite like it. You\u2019ll feel a wide range of mixed emotions. From freedom and independence to new responsibilities and stresses, moving out of your parent\u2019s house and attending college is an exciting time. And while you may be forced to live in a university-assigned dorm for a certain amount of time, you\u2019ll also likely find yourself confronted with the choice between a dorm or apartment at one point or another. Which will you choose?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Dorm Experience<a href=\"https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/content-manager\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2054 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm2-300x185.jpg\" alt=\"Dorm2\" width=\"300\" height=\"185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm2-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm2.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dorm life is one of those things <a href=\"http:\/\/mashable.com\/2013\/08\/23\/best-worst-dorm-life\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">you truly have to experience<\/a> to understand. There are good parts, bad parts, and plenty of ugly ones, too. While it can be fun to live in close proximity to your friends and peers, the \u2018fun factor\u2019 eventually wears off and reality quickly sets in around week two or three of the first semester.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Moving in. <\/strong>We\u2019ll start with move-in day. It\u2019s chaotic and stress inducing. That\u2019s because you have hundreds or thousands of students all moving into a select number of buildings in a very small amount of time. Couple that traffic nightmare with the logistics of moving desks, mattresses, boxes, TVs, and mini-fridges in crowded elevators or up multiple flights of stairs. Regardless of how good the student living coordinators are at their jobs, it\u2019s a challenge to make the process work without people being stressed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Communal bathrooms. <\/strong>Many dorms are laid out in a way that bathrooms are shared between multiple rooms (or even an entire floor). Not only does this eliminate a lot of privacy, but it can also be pretty nasty if you\u2019re a clean and organized person. It\u2019s also not fun to either walk back from the shower to your room in a towel or have to remember to bring clean clothes with you to the bathroom.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Doing laundry. <\/strong>Having to do laundry is bad enough, but it becomes exponentially worse when you don\u2019t have a washer and dryer in your room. This means you have to haul your hamper to a laundry room that\u2019s in the basement of the building or somewhere else on campus. When you get there, it\u2019s entirely possible that all of the machines are being used or that someone has forgotten to take their load out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>This may not be an issue everywhere, but many campuses have extremely limited parking and you\u2019re often forced to park in a garage or lot that requires you to walk a few blocks. This can be inconvenient when you\u2019re carrying lots of stuff or need to get somewhere in a hurry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lack of quiet time. <\/strong>Dorms are typically pretty loud places. Between the guys down the hall blaring music at 3 a.m. to your roommate playing video games while you\u2019re trying to study, it\u2019s challenging to find peace and quiet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re required to live in a dorm this year, we\u2019re not trying to freak you out. Every situation is unique and you may find that dorms at your school are just fine. However, we\u2019re sticking with the law of averages and predicting that you\u2019ll probably be ready for an apartment by the end of the semester. That\u2019s just how it typically goes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5 Reasons Apartment Living is Better<a href=\"https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/content-manager\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2055 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm3-300x185.jpg\" alt=\"Dorm3\" width=\"300\" height=\"185\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm3-300x185.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.renthop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Dorm3.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That leads us to apartment living, which offers a refreshing change of pace and many amenities that aren\u2019t available in on-campus dorms. If you\u2019re preparing to <a href=\"http:\/\/college.usatoday.com\/2014\/09\/24\/25-tips-for-living-in-your-first-off-campus-apartment\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">live in your first college apartment<\/a> this fall, here\u2019s what you have to look forward to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>More privacy. <\/strong>While you\u2019ll probably still have a roommate in your apartment, you\u2019ll most likely have a private room that allows you to shut the door and enjoy some much-needed alone time. This lets you concentrate on studying and get away for a while.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Lower cost.<\/strong> It may seem impossible, but apartments are generally cheaper than dorms. That\u2019s because dorms require you to pay room and board, which includes additional costs for things like food, laundry services, utilities, and more. When you move into an apartment, you only pay for what you use.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Better amenities. <\/strong>Many off-campus apartments have awesome features and amenities that you won\u2019t find in a dorm. In addition to basics like a kitchen and private bathrooms, there may be on-site amenities like swimming pools, tennis courts, and fitness centers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Fewer restrictions. <\/strong>Dorms are typically managed by resident advisors who set very specific rules and keep an eye out for behaviors that violate those rules. And while some rules are in place to keep you safe and out of trouble, others are just annoying. Well, in apartments, you\u2019ll find very few rules. You can come and go as you please and \u2013 as long as you\u2019re not doing anything illegal \u2013 and essentially do whatever you like.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Live with friends. <\/strong>When renting an apartment, you get to choose your roommates. This means you can live with people you actually enjoy being around. No more random room assignments or sleeping five feet away from somebody you don\u2019t know.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Living in an apartment won\u2019t be perfect, but it\u2019s far better than a cramped dorm room.
