Hi everyone, I’m hoping that current students can provide some insight.
I’m a 26-year-old military veteran matriculating at Vassar in Fall 2019. I recently learned that I
will be required to live in the dorms during my freshman and sophomore year. This, of course, will be a major adjustment, as I have been living independently for the past few years. Will younger students be uncomfortable with sharing spaces with someone that much older than them?
current student here. not at all! vassar students are generally very accepting people, and the posse vets are very well respected and valued by the campus community. also, I would think the students in the posse program are guaranteed private rooms, as vassar has many many singles around campus. if this is the case, you would only have to share the bathroom. there’s usually only 15-20 students assigned to a given bathroom with ample space, so i find i am frequently alone in there anyway
