Hey guys! I was recently accepted to Ohio State as a freshman for spring semester. It’s a long story, but I’m 20 (graduated from high school 2 years ago) and just starting college now. I really want a social/party kind of dorm. I don’t particularly care if I’m with people my age or other freshman, I just want to know if anyone can recommend which dorms are the most social? I always like to be around friends even if we’re just studying or hanging out. I doubt I’ll have much choice given that I’m starting in the spring but it would be good to have an idea. Thanks!!
My D prefers anything on south campus even though she is engineering and classes are on north campus. She loves to walk across the Oval every day. I think you are right that you won’t have much choice, but all the dorms have organized social events and outgoing students so anywhere on campus is social. Congrats on becoming a Buckeye!
@BuckeyeMWDSG Thanks for your response! That’s really helpful!
I think it really depends on the floor you’re on. Lived in Morrison on south last year, most floors are very social besides the international floor (4th I think?) and lower floors.
Living in Res on 10th now, ALL the rooms are suite-style so people have their own friend group already.
Would anyone recommend a particular way to fill out “preferences” for a first year engineering student? Thanks!
