[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love feedback. I would rather look at schools that mandate dorms for at least two years. Seems a lot of schools just have one and then you are on your own. I think my DC would benefit from a few years dorms. DC agrees. TIA[/quote]

I preferred this for both my kids.  And it worked well.

If only 1 year is required, your kid will have been on campus a month (sometimes less) and they will begin the search for who they want to live with the next fall.  Remember these kids are signing leases that are binding and you cannot get out of for any reason.  If your kid wants to transfer, oh well you are paying for the apartment.  If your kid no longer likes those kids or downright they all hate each other, well you will be finding a sublet or paying for 2 apartments or your kid will be living with those people.

But I cannot imaging having to search for sophomore housing within a month of being on campus.  My kid was just starting to find their group, and I know plenty of people who don't find their group until Spring semester.  The stress of searching for housing so soon does not seem like a good thing
