A fun part about college life is meeting new people and creating lifelong friendships. As you bond with others at school, you may want a living arrangement that allows you to spend more time together. Your friends may want to rent a house or conventional apartment, but those may cause problems in your relationships. Instead, you should select student housing that allows you to protect yourself and those you care about. Below are the factors you should consider when choosing your apartment.
Individual Leases
If you choose a nearby house or standard apartment, you can enjoy more space and a secluded yard. But you may share the bathroom with your friends and must work together to cover the bills. If someone cannot pay, you must handle their portion if they cannot find a way. But OCC student housing come with individual leases, so you only have to worry about your own rent. Also, you will have a separate bedroom and bathroom that gives you more privacy.
Amenities
While in a house, you will need to pay for your entertainment activities around town. If you do not have a car, you must borrow one from a friend or ride along with them to leave the house. Yet, OCC student housing has access to a rooftop lounge, study spaces, and a community game room. Also, you can hike or bike to class and use the gym and other resources on the school campus.
There are many more benefits that come with OCC student housing, which you can learn more about from the courteous staff at The Harbour at Orange Coast College by visiting their website.
