Quad Room

I lived in the Middle Earth towers (a quad) but even though it’s arguably better than the classics, it was still kind of packed & crammed having 4 people sharing one bedroom living space. The towers truly are amazing and so clean but your roommates literally will make or break your experience since ...

I lived in the Middle Earth Towers during my freshman year (2019), so the towers were freshly built and new. I had a triple room on the 5th floor, and I loved how it was laid out. The closets were nice and spacious, the bathroom (shared with another triple room) was cleaned daily and in great condit...

I loved living at Middle Earth dorms. I was placed in the Towers so they were newly built and have new amenities such as a laundry room, study rooms, individual call rooms, community kitchen, and a common room area! The towers were quad dorms with a shared bathroom to another quad. I shared a room w...

Middle earth classics: Overall, the room is a pretty decent size and I haven't really had any bad experiences in general. However, I do think the room as well as the building is quite old and there are basically no electrical outlets around the room so buying a power strip is crucial. In addition, t...

Single Room

I lived in a single in middle earth and it was honestly everything I wanted. Im someone that needs my personal space so a single was appropriate for me, and I was really able to balance my school and social life. The room was incredibly spacious, and I was able to decorate it to my liking. The bathr...

I am currently staying at the Valimar hall and it's not too bad. It feels homey but the restrooms are sometimes clogged and out of paper towels, and it takes several days for it to be replaced.

If u live in the classics, I would say it is not that good. But I live in the towers, which is quoted as a “hotel” compared to the classics.

Double Room

I lived in Elrond during my time in Middle Earth and I it was a blast. Although my room (a double) was a bit smaller than I would like, the community and amenities made up for it. It’s a very easy place to find your niche and each dorm is filled with a lot of future friends. Definitely try to make t...
