Are the Woodrow apartment-style dorms good?

<p>Hey there! :) I am currently a freshman at University of South Carolina Beaufort and I am transferring to Columbia campus next semester. I would like to hear some reviews on Woodrow dorms. Are they any good? Experiences?</p>

<p>My student has a good friend in Woodrow. It is a good location, across from Russell House. Friend is happy with the apartment and the roommates. I will ask for further information but I know the location is a big plus.</p>

<p>I lived in Woodrow sophomore year. The price is quite high. You could find much cheaper and probably larger off-campus. That being said, the location can absolutely NOT be beat.</p>

<p>I had a two bedroom apartment and I loved it. Mine was on the end, so we didn’t have a door directly to the outside. I don’t think I would have liked that for safety issues, but my other friends were fine with it.</p>

<p>AUGirl, what was the price for you? And yeah I have noticed the location is very convenient.</p>

<p>Oh and Goin2SC, let me know what they say.</p>

<p>I think it was $3500/semester. So $7000 for the year. You can definitely find much cheaper off campus.</p>

<p>[University</a> Housing](<a href=“Housing - Housing | University of South Carolina”>Housing - Housing | University of South Carolina) It’s gone up this year and will probably go up next year.</p>

<p>You might want to see if you can sublease from someone who is studying abroad in the spring. You can still live within walking distance and be off campus.</p>

<p>If you’re interested in living in the dorms to meet people, then Woodrow (and all apartment style) is just a plain terrible idea. My roommate and I tried to get to know our neighbors, but it just wasn’t a conducive environment for that. Suite and traditional style are much better (and also a lot cheaper).</p>
