For many international students, coming to the United States and living and studying there can be quite a daunting experience, especially when they have to find housing on campus or off campus. Fortunately, there are a variety of options that students can look to.
   For first-time students, coming and living on campus in dormitories can provide a certain level of security and convenience, since commuting without a car can be quite an experience, especially when they have to commute long distances. Often in dormitories, meals might be provided, and this can allow students to devote time to their academics, rather than housekeeping. But students should also be aware that they’ll be required to abide by certain regulations dealing with student conduct as part of the contract of living on campus.
   Another option is off-campus living in apartments, and like living in dormitories, living in an apartment requires little or no maintenance because usually it is handled by someone else. Also, when students live off campus, there might be a certain amount of flexibility in choosing roommates that students might not have while living on campus. But students should be aware that tenants may be responsible for furnishing their own apartments.
   Well, of course, the choice is up to you, but be careful to review both the advantages and disadvantages of living on campus and off campus. Good luck.
