    based on 3 reviews

    "Loved living on Newton but Keyes is pretty much the Newton of Newton, since it’s on the other side of campus from the other dorms. It’s right next to the dining hall though, which is a plus!" See all 3 reviews

  • Number 3

    Cushing

    100% of student reviewers lived here when they were a freshmen

    based on 3 reviews

    "Cushing is very forgettable. Its a small dorm, but its connected to the much bigger Hardey. It's in the best location on Newton Campus. Newton rooms are larger than Upper, but my room in Cushing was in a weird spot and ended up being smaller. Dorms on the parking lot side have to deal with the garbage truck clearing the dumpsters every morning." See all 3 reviews

    Cheverus

    100% of student reviewers lived here when they were a freshmen

    based on 3 reviews

    "Best dorm on upper campus IMO. Big lounge and study areas compared to the smaller number of residents. Lived in a forced triple and had some issues with space, but nothing huge." See all 3 reviews

  • Number 1

    Duchesne

    100% of student reviewers lived here when they were a freshmen

    based on 5 reviews

    "Rooms are typical for dorms, bathrooms are communal but cleaned pretty regularly. The green space outside Duch is the best part, in my opinion. It's super peaceful and separate, which I liked, but the hill can be an absolute pain. " See all 5 reviews
