Life at SCU: Dorms
I LOVE living in the dorms at SCU. I live in Swig and it is an 11-story building full of freshmen and sophomores. It is such a great place to meet people, my floor is very close, we all leave the doors open and socialize constantly. While it is expensive, it is worth the cost, the dining hall, Benson, is one minute walking from Swig and most of the dorms. There are also a lot of different dorms with different atmospheres because of the different RLC's. If you are very social, like going out and are outgoing, don't mind noise, live in Swig or Dunne. Campisi, San Fillipo, Graham, Sobrato and Casa Italiana are on the "quiet side" of campus, which is also SUPER nice. I would not recommend living in Walsh and McGlaughlin, they are fine, but the other dorms are better. Off-campus campus housing, like Bellarmine, University Villas and Saint Claire's are all good options as well especially for upperclassmen. I would definitely rank the off-campus campus housing 1. University VIllas (brand new) 2. Bellarmine 3. Saint Claire's (old motel redone, not the best option), bad location. The neighborhood next to SCU is the most popular option for upperclassmen. The houses all have names, such as "America", "Zoo", "Oasis", "Cloud 9", etc. I would recommend living off campus as an upperclassmen.
