- Dorms do have AC inside, no heat though. The shower curtains, rug, blinds, and garbage can are all included. I recommend you bring a good jacket. It gets very windy and cold outside since Whitehurst is so close to the river. This video was shot during the Spring Semester of 2016.
My child is an incoming freshman...... Business major.... the tip about getting them a bike was clutch!!! The video was the most helpful as far a setup, structure, and amenities go.... (even the dislikes). Really helped us plan for the upcoming school year. Was trying to figure out if the bathroom is shared by 2 or 4 people.... that is the only unanswered question I have based on all the videos I viewed. Other than that, thanks for sharing this video.
Glad I was able to help 🙂
Thank you for this awesome very informative video!
im the class of 2020, attending in the fall. hopefully they dont skip my graduation like they did for high school
Graduated in 07, and was at Whitehurst all 4 years, starting in 03. Literally nothing has changed. Wow. I know they updated the first floor in 2006 and revamped the common room but I thought they would've updated the rooms by now. Guess not. This was a nostalgia trip. Also, I had heat. But I was on the first floor so maybe that was the only floor that did.
Wow I was going to apply to ODU my senior year and this video was posted on my Birthday
Hi! I'll be living in Whitehurst and was wondering if you know which tower has the best view of the river and which has the largest floor plans. Thanks
They are both going to have the same size floor plans but B Tower definitely has a better view of the river.
@@RizeeyRee32 Appreciate it!
Hey Ryan, Im an up and comming freshman at ODU. Any tips you have for me wether thats Dorm prep or Time Management? And how's the Greek/Party life like at ODU?
I never really got involved with the greek life but but the parties are pretty fun. I would recommend you get a bike because the campus is huge. I'd also recommend you get involved in as many clubs as you can. You meet a lot of like minded people that way and it really shrinks the school down. And build a good report with your Advisor. That one is important lol
thank you for this! i toured whitehurst since i'll be staying in it this august, but i didn't get a good look at everything.
Elizabeth Cipolla glad I could help :)
im touring ODU tommorow. Nice video, looks like nice dorms.
how high do the beds rise? should I get bed risers?
MAKENZIE BLACKWELL It gets pretty high on it's own. I don't remember the exact height but it's almost 4ft.
are there pots and pans in the kitchen? or do you have to provide your own if you wanted to cook?
You would have to provide your own
Thank you so much for this informative review.
Are microwaves allowed in the dorm rooms, specifically in Gresham?
I know they aren't allowed in Whitehurst but they did have community microwaves. But I'd email Housing at housing@odu.edu to find out for sure.
I will be living in whitehurst. Is there a way to lock your room from the bathroom or does the other suit have access to your suit? (Through the bathroom)
yes there is a way to lock the bathroom door.
does it smell like fish? (the hall) i heard it does lol
Brittany Vo uhh no lol at least the halls I was on. I was on the 6th Floor B Tower and 1st floor A Tower.
No heat?
Jane Phillips they actually do. You dont have control over It though. It changes with the season.
+Ryan Smith, thanks, and great job on the tour. Specifics really help, like the size of the mini refrigerator.
is this dorm on the main campus? if not how long of a walk is it to main campus?
It's on the main campus but it's ALL the way on the edge. To Strome Business Building, it's about a 15 minute walk
Where did you get your shoe bins from?
Charleigh Austin The Container Store
So they provide you with cable?
yes, like 70-100 channels
Is there 2 closets for each person or do you both share one?
share one
+Ryan Smith that's annoying thanks though
I mean facilities inside the dorm
do you mean like cable, a bathroom and AC? it's got all of those.
Yup bro thanks
How is internet?
Aman Pathak Really good. I go here too 😀
Does the bed have risers?
Shyanne Carpenter no but the bed is adjustable. I had it at it's highest in this video.
Is there wifi?
yes and it's pretty good
hey dude,how is the environment near whitehurst?
it's nice! it's pretty busy because it's right next to the water and everyone loves to chill there plus the dorm houses over 500 people lol other than that, there is a big field behind Whitehurst where a lot of people from Powhatan and Whitehurst will play Frisbee and and other sports at. right across the street are houses students rent out so sometimes they'll throw parties. The only negative sometimes is the wind because how close we are to the water. But overall, I loved it
and what other major facilities are provided in whitehurst?
washers, dryers, kitchen with a stove and microwave, study rooms, and a cafeteria on the first floor.
And inside dorm ??
+Aman Pathak like what do you mean exactly?
nice review maybe you should start reviewing your shoe collection
I thought about, but there are just so many shoe videos out there. my video would get lost.
TFS 🤎❤ 👍🏽
I will be living in whitehurst. Is there a way to lock your room from the bathroom or does the other suit have access to your suit? (Through the bathroom)
