University Towers Reviews

Well the building is old, some floors were louder than others and it wasn't a bad place to live as a freshman. The setup is you live in a suite so one dorm has you and one other person then you share the bathroom with the people next door, a lot better than having to go to the communal ones. It is nice that there is a dining hall right downstairs. It is a little far from campus but not too bad once you know your way around campus. Overall, it was a great dorm to live in but even better if you have good roommates and suitemates!

The style of the room it a double so there is a good amount of room for you and your roommate. There is also a private bathroom you share with another set of roommate. Even though the building is old, it was still really nice to live in. Another plus is that it is right next to UTK which has a lot of good food options. It’s a little far from campus but the walk isn’t as bad as people make it seem.

Best dorm/building by far because of the bathroom in the room, 2 bed space, larger space, and chill front desk. The only issue is that it is a bit far from some classes but if you invest in an electric scooter it is perfect for to and from University Towers. I use an electric scooter and it fits under my bed when I fold it up and makes it super easy to get to classes, food, and activities. The walls are a bit thin though as I feel like I can hear my neighbors a lot more compared to my previous dorm in Olmeca which is a slight minus. The dining hall on the first floor is super yummy and is quite affordable which is awesome. There are elevators which makes it easy to get to your dorm and to your classes with a scooter or skateboard. The front... See more

UT gives you your money's worth. Biggest dorm room by far. They only have doubles and its the same size as the triples. And location wise, it's the furthest from the other dorms and school but its the closest to the gym and there's food on the first floor. It's known as the "athlete" building but I was put in there randomly. The rooms are built funny because they are more of a jack and jill style. The sink is in the bedroom but the toilet and shower is in between 2 rooms so 4 people share the toilet & shower.

University towers is amazing by far the biggest size for your dollar. Although it may be older they are finishing renovations soon it will be one of the better dorms.
