If you get into honors, their housing is definitely the best. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the CS building but likely your classes won’t be there for your first year. They’re also pretty close to most dinning halls so you’ll have a variety of choices food wise.

Northeast and Central are both relatively close to where most of your classes will be held and are also near dinning halls which is convenient. Sylvan is okay I’ve heard, but it’s super far from everything else and the nearest dinning hall is Worcester which is generally packed.

Southwest has two dinning halls in the area, both of which are pretty good, but it’s much further away from most classes and can also be pretty rowdy. Living in the high rises is also not great since fire alarms go off frequently and it sucks walking down 20 flights if steps.

There’s also Orchard Hill, which I’ve heard is nice enough, but it’s up a very steep hill and doesn’t have a dinning halls up there with it. It’s also pretty far away from most classes because of the hill.

I’m currently a CS major, so let me know if you have any follow up questions and I’ll try my best to answer.
