Less hot in the housing

Senior Interviewer

July 2019 • Bronxville, NY

What I liked

I like being able to live on campus for discounted housing, working closely with other students and the admissions counselors, and being able to save money for the future.

What I wish was different

I wish the summer accommodations (Hill House) had been air conditioned.

Advice

I think working on-campus over the summer is a really great way for students to make money that they can put towards future opportunities (such as studying abroad). It’s also fun to stay on-campus with other students, especially if you live farther away and long stays home can feel isolating.
