Choosing a dorm is an important decision. You'll be spending a lot of time there, and you want to make sure it fits your needs. Opt for a four-class dorm or a dorm with quiet hours if you need peace and quiet. Investigate the dorm's location to make sure it's close to classrooms, the student center and town. Ask how many people are put in each room.
Some dorms offer singles, but most offer doubles.
Sometimes dorms put three or four students in a room. Find out if a dorm offers suites. These are dorm rooms with one main room and two or more adjoining rooms. They tend to be more spacious. Look for dorms with conveniences such as cafeterias, laundry rooms, exercise rooms, recreation rooms and computer facilities.
