Living on campus is better than staying off campus. Students living in college residences will increase their cognitive, interpersonal, and intrapersonal development and complexity. They have easy access to college resources. The college has several residence halls. Students can choose from these halls depending on their requirements. Gender-inclusive residence halls are also available. The estimated cost of on-campus housing and meals is $8,800 and $8,300, respectively, for an academic year.

Students living off campus can have more privacy. But they have to make arrangements for everything. Rents for off-campus living for a single bed range from $800 to $1,400 per month. Living off campus can be cheaper than on-campus housing.
