Luxurious Dorms at Sarah Lawrence College?

Just for some curiosity's sake, how luxurious are the dorms at Sarah Lawrence College really? There’s the talk about being the most luxurious, but I wonder how true is this. Anyone with firsthand experience?

a year ago

While every person's definition of luxury might vary, Sarah Lawrence College does indeed offer some high-quality dorm options comparatively. Many dorms have been recently renovated or are well-maintained, given the tuition cost of the college.

The school boasts an array of different housing types, from traditional dorms to apartments, so the experience can vary greatly depending on which type you are assigned. Typical amenities include reliable Wi-Fi, communal kitchens, laundry facilities, and common areas for studying and socializing. Some dorms even feature suite-style arrangements, which include a shared living space for a small group of students.

One aspect of the housing that students often appreciate is the room size. Many students at Sarah Lawrence remark that the rooms are spacious and outfitted with up-to-date, functional furniture. The dorm areas are known to be quite green and scenic as well, which adds to the pleasant living experience.

However, I would caution not to pick a college solely based on its dorms. While having a comfortable living situation can certainly enhance your experience, it's also important to consider other factors like academic programs, extracurricular opportunities, campus culture, location, and more. It would be best to take a virtual or in-person tour to see what the dorms are like and see if they meet your personal expectations of luxury.

Remember, comfort is key, but it's just one piece of your overall college experience.
