hi, trying to decide whether to live at home or university?

Depends on several factors:
- How long would the commute be?
- Does money matter?
- Do you want to have fun?

I'd almost always suggest living in halls (if this is financially viable) because there's nothing quite like living on campus. But it does depend on several other factors as well, and also on personal factors: do you feel the need to have your own independence? Do you have other commitments outside of university that would make it easier to live at home? Do you plan on getting very involves with sports and societies or other activities on campus?

Im going to be living in Founders.

I decided that because I wanted to try to be independent and away from home. This way I can explore the joys and pains of freedom and hopefully grow up.

Living at home would have been cheaper but I think that uni is once in a lifetime and so in my opinion the price for halls is worth it - we ll neevr get to live in halls with so many students ever again.
