Space
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? Being everyday and sharing a room with other American and international students is an experience that you must live to better understand what is the American way of living.
Personal comments:
Perfect organization by Clemson University. The place is safe, moving-day where students help you to move your belongings.
