The dorms are crappy and full of roaches for the most part. The RA doesn't help much and it always smells like weed and alcohol because we are a heavily Greek school. The off-campus housing nearby is limited and expensive.

My family made me choose this college because it was close to home and I only have to cover in-state tuition. It is a good college for my major because one of the campuses is near the water so I can study there too. It's a heavy nursing and science school. But is also big for briskness and engineering.

I did not live on campus. I lived at home with family. Since I went to an in-state college I was able to commute to classes so this enabled me to save some additional money each year. I did have to pay to park on campus though.

The college is close to home, which allowed me to stay close to family and easily work while still living at home. The state colleges are typically more affordable, and this university had a program with the community college in my state to earn a discounted tuition.
