Santa Clara University Dorms Ranked

Number 5

"Campisi is known for being one of the less social dorms, which is perfect if you want your living area to be quite for studying. So I would recommend not going here if you like noise :) The rooms are fairly spacious with 2 large dressers and armoire wardrobes, a sink and enough cabinet space for other stuff. Bathrooms could definitely be cleaner. But the location is pretty convenient, really close to the library and the gym. " - 2 years ago

"Sobrato is a suite style dorm divided into two buildings, front and back, featuring personal bedrooms, a suite living room, a laundry room, and common areas including an outdoor garden/grill area. This review is for FRONT BUILDING.

Front building is tailored to first years and has common areas, a commuter lounge, a media room, a game room, one classroom, and the common kitchen/multipurpose room. This multipurpose room is where the RA staff and various student organizations hold events for residents. There's also a service desk where you can rent vacuums, mops, and pick up your mail.

Suites house 6 people, 4 singles and 1 double with a communal area outfitted with 2 couches, a TV stand, a sink and counter, and two bathrooms.

Dislikes:

There aren't enough washers and dryers. I had to find a less than ideal time block during the week for laundry.

The front building could do with a refurbish as the counters and surfaces are a little yellowed.

Likes:

The events in the multipurpose room introduced me to clubs I would take part in for all four years and connected me with close friendships.

The single was just what I needed to recharge and be comfortable when I needed time alone, which you don't get in other dorms.

Advice:

There's no cleaning service like other halls. 6 people is a lot for one space and it really shows. Be sure to clean proactively as the filth can really sneak up on you and front building suites are infamous for getting nasty late in the year." - 4 years ago

"Newest and nicest dorm rooms at Santa Clara. Rooms are huge and each student gets there own, very big, closet. One of the quieter dorms on campus. It is the farthest dorm from the dinning hall or most buildings however SCU is very small so it is not a major problem. " - 2 years ago

Number 2

"Graham is great! The rooms are big and suite style so you live in either a double or triple and only have to share the bathroom with the room next to you--you're connected by a mini hallway so if you all end up being homies it’s a great time, if not you still have your privacy. Socializing can be hit or miss because it can honestly depend on the floor/which side of the building you're on but you really can't go wrong with the building itself. The common rooms are spacious and all have TVs, there's study rooms and a foosball table, so it's def a place you'd actually enjoy hanging around and having friends over." - 4 years ago

Number 1

"It is such a great place to be when coming back from a day full of classes, meetings and all involvement. It is separate from all other dorms, but offers both peace/quite and social life." - 3 years ago
