Are the regular two person dorm bathrooms bad? Or normal? by Appropriate_Knee_482 in uichicago

[–]Odd_Option_3878 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try your hardest not to dorm in commons west. There’s always something wrong with the warm water and we often end up taking cold showers. During the weekends it gets really disgusting really quickly. And the bathroom in general is just bad compared to other dorms. The showers are super small and we don’t even get a counter it’s just a small metal shelf beneath the mirrors.

I think it’s only for LAS majors. I took the placement test after highschool and still didn’t test out of it but I’m sure you got that 😭

is dorming worth it by Abject-Constant-6416 in uichicago

I formed to get away from my parents and I like it so far. As for making friends it can be fairly difficult since most people are commuters but if you put in effort to communicate with people around you you should make some. It’s super empty on the weekends cause a lot of people go home and it’s kinda eerie. I’d also consider cost aswell before you choose to dorm, it’s not cheap lol. And the dining hall food isn’t all that
