San Jose State University Sophomore Dorms Ranked
Ranking the best sophomore dorms at San Jose State University, according to students.
Number 3
Campus Village 2 (CV2)
based on 9 reviews
"Honestly very glad I decided to dorm in CV2 my freshman year (2021-2022). Though it is the most expensive freshman dorm, I think everything that the building has to offer makes it worth it. I lived in a double and there was plenty of space for the both of us. The bathrooms were cleaned daily by the nice cleaning staff and each floor offers 2 lounges, 1 designated for studying. There’s also a kitchen and lounge/music room on the 1st floor. As for cons, from my experience, CV2 definitely has a “hotel vibe”, meaning I wouldn’t necessarily say that it’s very social. Also, elevators can get pretty crowded during common class times, so if you live on the lower floors, you should probably make adjustments accordingly. Other than that, CV2 was great to dorm in and I’d recommend it for anyone looking to dorm at SJSU. " - 1 year ago

CVC
based on 2 reviews
"CVC is known for the shared suites. Each floor has a different amenities/hangout room (table tennis, kitchen, study room, etc). Each suite has 4 double bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms. Sometimes one of the doubles are turned into a triple so each suite has 8-9 people.
Pros:
- pretty clean (depending on your suitemates really)
- forced to live with suitemates so easier to meet people
- private bathroom shared between 4-5 people
Cons:
- no ethernet (although not sure if any building still has ethernet)
- forced to live with suitemates so can get loud at times
- your suite is responsible for cleaning your own bathrooms" - 1 year ago1 student reviewers said they lived in CVC during their sophomore year

- The chairs provided in the dorm are so uncomfortable 🪑
- All three elevators are always packed during rush hours 🛗
- The windows in the rooms are hard to open 🪟" - 1 year ago7 student reviewers said they lived in Campus Village B (CVB) during their sophomore year
