    If you went to college, did you go out of state or locally? Did you live on campus?

    I went out of state, lived in the dorm for the first two years. Then I got an off campus apartment for the other two.

    I went in state. I lived on campus during the week and went home on weekends. I was in a typical freshman dorm at the beginning and then basically an on-campus apartment later. Ah, memories. The college fell on hard times after I graduated and I found out it went under around 1995. I saw pictures of the abandoned campus. Kind of sad. cries

    I went locally and kept living at home. I didn't really wanna uproot to some strange state I knew nothing about and live with a bunch of strangers.

    It was local in that it was still in the state, but the college was in another town, but I attended online so I was able to stay at home because I was too young to go live on campus when I started.

    I went away and am glad I did. One of the best experiences of my life. I needed to get out from under the thumb of family and get that first taste of independence. I would recommend everyone do it.

    Am I the only one on this board who didn't go to college?

    I went to USAF. I slept in a dorm. Went out of state & studied overseas. Finished a 4-year course and graduated with an honorable discharge.

    I'm currently attending locally; my college is about thirty miles from where I live now. For my first semester, I lived off campus with five other roommates in a duplex that was a few blocks away from campus, but unfortunately, I didn't quite fit in with them. I moved back in with my parents for the following semester, and then I moved into the apartment I'm still in now, where I live by myself and love it.

    Did you go to Rutgers? Friend of mine went there. At the main campus in New Brunswick. I started to go there too, but didn't want to pay the out of state tuition.

    Yup. I went to the Camden campus, despite both the New Brunswick and Newark campuses only being literally 15 minutes to a half hour away from my parents house. I understand you're not wanting to pay extra, because the tuition is significantly more (over ten grand more, actually) if you come from out of state.

    Did you have fun in Killa Camden? LOL. I was going to try and be slick and use my cousin's address in Jersey City to set up residency, but I don't think that would've worked out to well. When I graduated high school, out of state tuition at Rutgers was like 19, 20 grand. Including room and board. I was like 'ummmm, no'.

    I went (locally) but dropped out in my 2nd year. I'll go back before I'm 30.
