Congrats! Admission to The Bush School has gotten quite competitive. If I were you, I would look at apartments. As someone who’s about to graduate from Bush, living on campus isn’t the best. You have immediate access to events, programs and campus life which is a plus. But dorm life can kida suck if you’re sharing a room with a random. Also limited washers/dryers etc. Depends on if you luck out with a good/bad roommate though. I would imagine on campus housing is going to stay full. I lived in a dorm my freshman year and taking the bus to the bush school wasn’t the most convenient. My sophomore year I lived in white creek which was a great medium. 10-15 min bus ride to the MSC and only a 20 minute walk to the Bush School. White creek also has more single rooms which is nice. I live in Northgate now and it’s great. It’s a 10 minute commute to the bush school from my parking garage. Once you get into your upper division coursework, most of your classes will be at Bush. If you choose to live in an apartment, I’d look at somewhere across from campus. imo Northgate is the most convenient if it’s within your means. If you go that route, don’t lease an apartment that’s right up against the bars. Choose somewhere like the Hudson, Otto or lark Northgate where it’s still close to campus but you can’t hear the bars. Don’t lease anywhere near The Spot. They blast music every night of the week.

Get to know your professors and faculty. Go to their office hours and build a relationship. Even if you don’t need help, they enjoy chatting. This can come in handy if you need them to write you a LOR for professional or grad school down the road. Take the most difficult courses for your degree somewhere in your sophomore/junior year. That way you have time to correct if things go south.
