“I lived on campus for four years. I really enjoyed it. First, the convenience — all your friends are living in the same area as you. And I’ve made friends by living in the dorms. We study together and go to the dining hall together.”

“Living in a dorm is pretty convenient because you’re very close to classes. Boston is pretty expensive, so just having a place where you can live and you do not have to pay a lot of money is pretty convenient.”
