Student housing offers an excellent way to experience university or college
. There are some fantastic social benefits of living in shared student housing. You meet people straight away which certainly makes the first few weeks of term a lot easier. One of the scariest things about attending university is the thought of knowing no one! Even aside from the obvious social benefits however, there are plenty of other reasons to look for student housing when attending college.
The academic benefits are good too. Student housing is usually situated very close to campus and the library which means attending lectures and carrying out further study is easy and usually involves just a short walk. Those who live near or on the campus have an overall higher pass rate than those who choose to live further away from the academic centre of the college or university. The close proximity also means students can become more involved with university life. Clubs and societies are easier to join and it is much easier to join in with other campus activities. Not only is getting involved in this way good fun, it also looks great on your CV.
