Traditional
Usually one shared bedroom and a community bathroom serving the floor. Often the broadest and lowest-price inventory, but privacy and kitchen access vary.
Suite
Bedrooms connect to a bathroom shared by a smaller group. Confirm how many students share it and who cleans it; those details vary by school and building.
Apartment
Typically includes a shared kitchen, bathroom, and common area. Meal-plan rules, bedroom occupancy, and utilities can still differ.
Before choosing
Compare total academic-year cost, room occupancy, bathroom users, AC, bed size, kitchen access, dining requirements, accessibility, and exact move-in route.
