Campus Housing at Northwestern University

A-

Enjoyed Dorm Life Much More Than I Thought I Would

Cost is a bit high (like everything at Northwestern), but there are a bunch of options for freshman dorms, and I've definitely enjoyed dorm life. South campus is very close to downtown Evanston and humanities classes, while North campus is closer to science classes and also the better gym. Residential colleges provide a nice sense of community, although I know a lot of people perfectly happy in res halls as well.

Athletics at Northwestern University

B+

Personally Am Not Very Involved in Athletics

I've been to two football games, and I guess the school spirit was pretty good. But I'm not very into the athletics scene.

Transportation at Northwestern University

A

Public Transit

Shuttles, buses, the CTA, Metra, taxis. You can pretty much get anywhere with public transit once you figure it out how it works.

Weather at Northwestern University

C

Cold....

It's Evanston. There's a lake right there. The cold here is not a joke, and it can snow a lot. If your classes are far from your dorm, then that really sucks.
