For commuting to FIT, do you make as much friends as dorming?

Question

Hello, I just got accepted into FIT for illustration and i am thrilled, but there is this one question that has always bothered me. I am commuting not dorming, and i've been told that you dont make as much friends as you do with dorming and that its not the great "college exsperience." Is the social life just as good? I live a half n hour away and figured dorming wouldnt be worth the money.

Answer 1

I commute to college also, and i have to agree with that slightly. I mean, if you live on campus, all you can do is talk to people around you when you are bored. But, when you live at home in a more comfortable environment you can do all kinds of things. Saying that, I still have made quite a few friends commuting.
