HOUSING    
Personal assessment
Cost
KEY:
Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
Facilities
Location
Cleanliness
Space
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Independently - My choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? More space and less expensive
Personal comments:
If money is no object, the campus residence is second to none in terms of cleaniless, facilities and comfort, But because money matters, I prefer shared accommodation.
