Hi! This upcoming fall I am going to be a freshman at USC. I am wondering what the best dorms are for a girl. I don’t care if it is a co-ed dorm or a all women dorm. I would prefer a dorm that doesn’t have a communal bathroom but if there is a popular dorm (or best dorm) you would recommend then I can deal with it. I am looking for a dorm that most freshman girls would recommend. I’m very social and love to go out if that makes a difference. I have heard that Patterson and Preston are pretty good. Is one better than the other? I need some suggestions! Thanks(:
Long time ago I loved living on the womens quad (Sims, McClintock, Wade Hampton). They are all female and were completely gutted and redone a few years ago and are now suite style (I’m almost positive). Check them out if you don’t have a learning community you prefer. Great location for freshman since right in the middle of campus. I’ve also heard that Preston is good but check on living requirements. I think it has a different meal plan and you commit to eating dinner together a certain amount of time. Which you might really like - but I know a kid that didn’t pay attention to all that and didn’t realize what was involved. Patterson was also recently redone and well located.
Our DD lived in Patterson freshman year and loved it. Right by Russell House and the center of campus. Newer, very clean and nice!
