If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? close to the other students and all the accomodation (classes, food, athletic center..)
Personal comments:
could have been better because i had to share my room with another girl. I was lucky because she was pretty cool but if she had not been friendly, it could have been a disaster...i'd rather have my own room, especially with the price i paid for it...
