Attending college is usually one of the first things that you’ll do in your adult life if you don’t choose to start a career, take time for yourself, or start a family after graduating high school. While attending college, there are a few different living options including staying at home and traveling back and forth to the campus or living in one of the dorms. Living in an apartment that is close to the campus offers several benefits to consider before making a final decision about living arrangements.

Cost of Living

A benefit of apartments close to the UTK campus is that you’ll usually see a lower cost of living compared to living in a city away from the school. This is because many of the landlords and apartment managers know that students will need affordable housing options if the dorms are full or if they are too far away from home to travel back and forth.

Stay on Time

When you live in one of the apartments close to the UTK campus, it will usually make it easier to get to your classes on time. Since there will usually be several other students in the community, you can work together to carpool and to make sure everyone stays on top of assignments and makes it to classes on time if you find that it’s difficult on your own.

Activities

Whether it’s working or taking part in school functions, living in an apartment near campus will allow you to easily take part in anything you want. After the activity, you can go home and relax in your personal space instead of a small dorm room.
