Best Ohio State University dorms

Freshman Honors dorm, great location and attached to kcomm. It’s connected to Paterson and BradPat feels like one big dorm. It’s nicer than Mack/Canfield but not as good as siebert, morrison, etc. Bathrooms are communal but were recently renovated so they’re alright. - 5 years ago

Old dorm but nice to live in.

There are 2 double-person rooms on each floor, but the rest of the building is just singles. Building community, unsurprisingly, is pretty lackluster so join some clubs to make up for it.

The bathroom is cramped but you do have it all to yourself. Air conditioning can be wonky sometimes.

Location is pretty good in general, close to many dining locations and classrooms.

The view from the top few floors is unmatched. - 5 years ago

2nd best dorm behind res on south campus! Best location for food options and right by bus stops to take you north whenever you need! Pretty big rooms for a regular double at OSU tbh. - 5 years ago

I roomed in raney my freshman year and it was really nice. The bathrooms weren’t what I was expecting(they were better) and the room itself was nice. The building was pretty modern too. My favorite part was the distance from high street and places like Scott and nrec. I had a pretty quiet floor so if you are looking to be more social raney probably isn’t the best fit. The normal 2 person rooms themselves are a tad bit small but they are nice nonetheless. - 2 years ago

Loved Houston. The building was great, the location was great, the rooms were great... I could go on forever! One thing I really loved was having the kitchen/building lounge on the second floor- if you’re studying there you won’t get distracted by people walking in and out of the building, and it’s just a lot more private overall. - 5 years ago
