Boston College (BC)

I would find 2 or 3 good friends to live with me in our own place instead of living with 12 roomates (great) BUT with the 2 owners... no party possible !

BECAUSE IT S THE BEST PRICE/QUALITY RELATION

Enjoy the independence of an apt, but the fun of having roommates

Because it gives you more independence that on campus

I'd rather live in an apartment/house because: 1.- Considering rent, food and utilities, the final living cost for an apartment is lower than on Campus. 2.- No need of sharing the room with your roommate and restrooms with the rest of the students living in the same floor. 3.- More flexibility and quality regarding meals. Living on campus implies eating the food the cafeteria/Dining hall offers and at the scheduled time. 4.- Dorms are usually noisy spaces because there are too many students, with different schedules and different objectives. Therefore, it's difficult to have the appropriate environment for effective study.

Living in an apartment gives you more freedom as you don't have to obey to certain restrictive rules. However, I would have taken an individual room, it's more private (although even more expensive)
