When the process of choosing a college starts, so does the question of a living situation. Many students coming in feel as if living in dorms are the only way to get a full college experience. You can commute and still be involved on campus and enjoy your time. There are also some perks of being a commuter student. So who needs a campus anyway?
Perks:
1. Home Cooked Meals
The art of a good home cooked meal. Beats out out ramen noodles and expensive meal plans any day.
2. No Dorm Rules
Sometimes quiet hours and visitation restrictions kills the fun. At home you can have more fun with less restrictions.
3. Save Money
No worries about student loans and expensive room & board fees.
