Living on campus is part of the whole college experience. In addition to the partys and meeting new people and having fun you will actually find it has some advantages to your studying and some disadvantages. People love to get together and study together and living on campus will help this but there are times you will want to go somewhere quiet to study. There are more points but these are some that come to mind.

Having a roommate is pretty good and sometimes bad. If you never lived with someone else you will find there are times the two of you will get along great other times you just wish they would leave, unless you hate each other from the jump. If you know someone going to the same school you may want to room together instead of getting on chosen for you.

If you live in a dorm you give up a lot of rights. Most can just come in and search your dorm room at any time so you have to be very cool with your habit. You will learn what you can and can't get away with. It will also depend a lot on the RA on that floor or wing or area. In general a resident advisor is a student just like you but gets his place for free or reduced to be like the hall monitor/assistant super. They deal with all kinds of problems from plumbing to noise to dueling residents. Some are cool, some are hardcore.
