Best freshmen dorms at BC?

<p>I’d really rather be on Upper, so which dorms on Upper are the best? Also, the BC site doesn’t have pictures of the individual dorms. Is there anywhere that I can find this info without visiting again?</p>

<p>you don’t get to pick which dorm you want, but they’re all pretty much the same. fitzpatrick/gonzaga are closer to class than claver/loyola/xavier/fenwick, but only by about a minute.
i took these pictures last year right before i moved out:</p>

those are two drawers in the middle of the room</p>

<p>Like fraire said, you have no choice in the matter. No use in worrying what you’re going to get.</p>

<p>Frosh dorm assignments are a lottery, so not even worth your time looking.</p>

<p>You might even get the infamous Newton Campus, which, by the way, was a great experience.</p>

<p>newton campus is a satellite campus where about 40% of bc freshmen live. It is also home to the bc law school. The other 60% of freshmen live on upper campus. </p>

<p>With newton you have to take the bus to get to main campus and classes and such. They have buses running on a constant loop and they run until 2 am. </p>

<p>Newton supposedly has the best dining hall at BC as well. </p>

<p>The whole newton vs. upper thing is really not a big deal. It becomes a fun rivalry and everyone ends up loving where they live no matter what.</p>
