[quote=Anonymous]Most schools where my kid applied did not guarantee on campus housing after the first year. A few didn't even guarantee it for freshman year. Coming from a SLAC in the 90s, that seemed so weird to me at first. I was on campus for 3 years and could have been there all 4, but I really, really wanted to live in an apt. my senior year. My kid is at UM and when I asked if they wanted to apply for sophomore housing, they were adamant that they did not. Most kids actually do want to live off campus. I think the dorm is really a good way to start freshman year b/c there is less responsibility and it gives kids an easy way to make friends. However, I can completely understand why living off campus after freshman year is appealing. It is pretty much the norm.[/quote]
