When you go to college, you should live off campus. In a rented apartment, you can enjoy the privacy and convenience of your own kitchen and bathroom. You can cook your own food and you don't have to share the bathroom with a roommate. College meal plans are available and they are not expensive. Even though they give you more living space than a dormitory room, oft-campus apartments can be found for the same price or less. An off-campus apartment is usually quieter than a dorm. Students in the dorm are
usually noisy because they like to make a lot of noise. An apartment also gives you a
better chance to develop a sense of the larger community of the town or city in which your college is located
