<p>I will be attending PSU this upcoming fall and was wondering what I should put down as my top dorm choices. As a freshmen, which dorm will give me the best overall experience?</p>
<p>Any response is appreciated. Thanks!</p>
<p>East halls is where all we freshman will be this fall!!</p>
<p>Yes that’s apparently where most freshmen live, but is it their a better option for me to put down first?</p>
<p>Yea I think north halls is the “next” for freshman but what I have heard is that it gets pretty lonely but it is all to your discression. Personally for me, I wouldn’t recommend it!</p>
<p>That depends on what you’re looking for. I’ve heard east is good for you if you want to be surrounded by only freshman, don’t mind it being noisy/crazy/the long walk to classes/etc. Some people love it there probably because you’ll no doubt meet a ton of people. However, you don’t have to go to east; you are certainly allowed to choose another dorm. For instance, some freshmen lived in south halls this year, and last year I know some freshmen were in west. I think if you live almost anywhere on campus you’re going to meet people, so that shouldn’t be a problem. And don’t think just because you aren’t in east, there won’t be other freshmen. All of Hoyt Hall (in south) was freshmen this year. </p>
<p>South is right next to downtown, not too far from classes, and pretty good food. It can be loud at times especially if you have a window facing the street. West has good food, is the closest to a lot of classes, and is a bit quieter. I really don’t know anything about North. Pollock…people don’t really say too much about it. That’s because it’s kind of “medium”…it’s near south halls, has a good buffet, not too too far from classes. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>I was in Pollock my first two years. I liked it. It was lively but not crazy, and it’s a pretty good location. Very close to town and not too far from classes. Lots of parties - but you could get away and study if you want to.</p>
