Both situations have advantages and disadvantages and which one you choose depends a lot on what is important to you. For example, on-campus housing is generally much convenienter than off-campus housing. It’s more easier to get to class, especially early in the morning. Students who live on campus are also more closer to the facilities such as the library and the gym. On the other hand, in a dorm, you usually have to share a room, while off-campus housing can be much more privater and least noisy. Cafeteria food is another disadvantage of on-campus housing.
