Nushy Golriz / The Dartmouth Staff From upperclassmen trying to recreate their freshman year experiences to varsity athletes looking to live as close to practice as possible, many students choose to live off campus with friend groups to garner a sense of hominess not found in College housing despite the relatively high cost of rent and occasional mishaps.

Patrick Campbell '15 said he decided to live off-campus so that he could live with all of his lacrosse teammates in one place.
