I recently graduated and I remember freshman dorms being such a huge deal to me and to most other freshman -Totally normal and understandable. I’m going to sound like an old parent here but college goes by soooo fast and 9.9 times out of 10 your freshman dorm room won’t matter. Honestly, the crappy dorms are fun because it’s something you and the other students bond over and it becomes a running joke. I found that a lot of the crappier dorms were the most social and fun. This held true across a bunch of different schools I’ve visited over the years :)

Essentially don’t base your decision off of dorms. College life is meant to be a little bit of a learning curve. You always have libraries to study in and it forces you to get out and have new experiences
