Can anyone help me distinguish the differences in college housing options?

Question

I'm filling out a college housing preference thing, but I have no idea what anything means. What is a shared suite of rooms? or a private bedroom in a 2-4 person apartment? I just want my own bedroom....

Answer 1

A shared suite of rooms usually means several people live in a suite with either their own bedroom or a shared bedroom that connects to common rooms. Usually a living room, kitchen, and bathroom.

The 2-3 person apartment is basically the same thing except a private bedroom means that you don't have to share your bedroom.

In regular dorms there is usually just one room that you sleep/study, etc. in. Usually there is a bathroom that the whole floor shares and maybe a floor kichen.

Reglar dorms can be 1 person up to about 4 person arrangments.
