Are you on the fence about whether or not to move off of campus next semester into student living at UTK? There are many reasons to move off-campus, but the most important is that it saves you money. The following are three ways that moving into an off-campus apartment helps your budget.
Three Ways Moving Into Student Living Saves You Money
1. No Required Meal Plan – When you live in the dorm, schools often require you to purchase an annual meal plan in the cafeteria. This is usually upcharged and you usually don’t use all of it. A meal plan is not required when you live in student living at UTK, so you have more control over your meals and your budget.
2. The Leas Itself – Most people don’t realize that living in the dorms is very expensive. This is especially true when you consider the miniscule dorm rooms and shared bathrooms you are provided for the cost. When you move off of campus, you get more space for less money in most instances.
3. More Roommates – In a big apartment, you can have multiple roommates. This brings savings when it comes to your utilities and other incidental costs because you are splitting them with two other people. You can also choose roommates who might be into helping each other save money all year instead of being assigned them.
