American University Dorms Ranked

"The renovations made to the dorm in the summer of 2023 have made Leonard’s a great place to live. I have zero complaints and love this hall. Private bathrooms, beautiful lounges, great hall experience."

"Disappointing hall. In the same bottom tier housing as Leonard and Hughes. Only improvement over Hughes is that McDowell never exploded or caught on fire."

"Letts does have AC but it was broken in my dorm so it was brutal in the spring when DC weather is 90+ degrees and facilities refused to fix it"

"Lived here as a freshman, the renovations are pretty nice if you use the lounges a lot (especially the kitchen), but other than that, pretty standard residence hall. A/C was finicky which sucked for the first month or two but the heat was consistently good. Wouldn't recommend living in a triple in Andy as I had a lot of friends who did that and often fought over storage space, but for two people it's good enough. Also, go to Letts for laundry lol"

"Easily the best of the freshman dorms. Private bathroom is a godsend. Doors are thick enough to block out sounds and smells, enabling a fun time to easily be had. Look out for the RA’s doing their rounds every ~2 hours. Also, the view out of most dorms in Centennial is way better than any in Anderson or Letts."

"Cassell is pretty good! Some pros are that it is all pretty new, and there are suite styles that allow for groups to live together. Some cons are that there is bug problems (but it is a dorm lol). "

"East campus is a great place for sophomores. There is a private bathroom and a common area that allows everyone to get to know each other. The furniture is also new and sturdy."
