[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's a list of where 89%+ of students live on campus (so 3+ years on average):

NP. This list is useful for you, OP. I'll add that not all these schools have a formal [i]requirement[/i] for students to live on campus after freshman year, but in effect, because of things like the surrounding housing market, plenty of dorm space, and/or a culture of living on campus instead of off-campus, students still expect to live in campus housing after the first year.

I can add, from our family's experience (DD went to a college on the list above with a high 90s percentage), a campus where nearly everyone lives on campus all four years does a lot to reduce student stress. No stress and pressure over needing to find off-campus housing, get it locked in extremely early, scramble to find roommates at times, etc. DD's frieinds at a couple of large schools, where almost no one stays on campus after freshman year, experienced a lot of stress around things like having to nail down housing in the middle of one school year for the next school year, etc. [/quote]
