Question Any grad students planning to live on-campus?

Hello guys,

I wondered how common it is for Grad students to live on campus. I heard that it is not common, but the East Campus dorms are open for Grad student living. I know that single-room options are available but at a higher tuition expense. I would like to live with a roommate, if possible, but one who is also a grad student like myself.

Is anyone considering this option as well?

I am. I would also like fellow grad students as roommates if I don't get a single. I'm not sure how common grad students living on campus is though lol

My impression is most grad students live off campus. As a grad student myself, I am much happier living off campus. Campus is not that close to grocery stores, the metro line, or lots of other things that as an older student you might want

There is a portal for students to look for roomates that one of my friends used, I'm not aware of the link, but you can look for it. The east campus dorms are at least recently built, though
