Best Rochester Institute Of Technology dorms

suite-style layout is great for bathroom privacy. Great views and controllable heating and cooling. Mixture of deaf and hearing people, overall a very chill and quiet social environment.

Location is near two eating establishments, commons and sol's underground, and is right next to the NTID building. However, it is further from most of campus than the rest of the dorms.

There are a few drawbacks that come with the building's size. It is the tallest on campus at 12 floors, yet only has 2 elevator shafts like the other dorms. Elevators are often broken for weeks or months at a time, further exacerbating congestion. The building's large population also leads to more frequent fire alarms, around once per month.

Overall, it's a good dorm, but I'd advise looking for a room in peterson or res-D first. They have the same advantages of the suite-style layout, but are only 2 or 3 floors tall and slightly more central location. - 1 year ago

Dorm rooms were fine! They're not huge but not uncomfortable. Bathrooms aren't really modern and they are communal, but I never had a problem with cleanliness. The shower pressure depends on who you ask and hot water can run out. Fine location. - 1 year ago

This building has AC units, really nice in the beginning of fall semeseter and end of spring semester. - 1 year ago

Normal sized dorm rooms, either rectangular or square depending on where you are in the building. Very quiet, went the whole year without any fire alarms. Heating is good in the winter and next fall (2023) there is supposed to be AC. Bathrooms were what you expect, nothing fancy, and the lounges were bland, at least this year. - 1 year ago

Roomed in Sol 7 in the 2009-10 academic year. Had a blast! Made good friends and have so many fond memories. 10/10 would room there again. There's no AC, but it doesn't really matter. It's only hot for like 2 weeks out of the school year. - 1 year ago
