    You can want what you want, but unless you apply in August to get accepted early, or are an honors student, you're extremely unlikely to get into Core/Holmes. Those are the first rooms to go.
    Douthit is newer & the rooms nicer, but unless you're in the business school it can be a long walk to classes, which sucks when the weather is bad or it's really hot. Also the dining hall has limited hours/menu which gets old, fast. Imagine wanting to eat on a weekend but the dining hall is closed & you have to haul your ass to Schilleter.
    The highrises are ok, views are phenomenal, but that communal living can suck if you have a problem with the people you live with. The bookcases are built in, so you can't rearrange the room. 4-10 flights is a LONG way to walk in a fire drill, or if you miss the elevator & are running late. Mauldin is just old, and spillover of frats/sororities can go there which can suck if you're not Greek. It can also be loud there.
    People sh't on The Shoeboxes, but the location is great, especially for Death Valley, Little John & baseball. You also have a sink in your room, which is convenient if you just want to brush your teeth/wash your face; you don't have to go to the communal bathroom. Make sure to get into Benet, Cope or Geer, the windows are much larger & let more light in.

      Emily Warchol you can only live on the hall as a sophomore! I only got on our hall because some girls studied abroad and some rooms opened up. But I’ll be doing a tour of my room in the sorority dorm next fall

  • @rebeccacarlson2465

    this is so helpful! i’m deciding between holmes and douthit right now. does being kinda separated from the rest of campus have that big of an effect on the social scene? have you heard of people feeling “left out” if they live in douthit? it’s so nice but i don’t know if like how isolated it seems to be!

    • @kearaspencer2218
      @kearaspencer2218  4 года назад +2

      rebecca carlson yay I’m glad! And I don’t think so! It’s really not that far as it seems on the map. Plus a lot of people end up living in douthit so you wouldn’t be left out! Having friends in different dorms/ different sides of campus isn’t that bad since clemson has a walkable campus. Getting on the opposite side of campus takes like 10-15 tops

      Yeah all the dorms have something good about them and at the end of the day none of them are absolutely terrible! This was just my ranking of them from most favorite to least favorite! If u ended up with the shoeboxes it wouldn’t be the end of the world but most people Choose the other dorms first

    • @kearaspencer2218
      @kearaspencer2218  4 года назад +1

      Abigail Anthis You can make Roommate groups of 4 people if you’re living in a suite, or groups of just 2 people if you’re living in a regular dorm. If you know who your roommate is going to be add them to your roommate group by searching up their username. Here’s a link that hopefully helps too! housing.clemson.edu/roommates/
