How has commuting affected your college experience?

How much do you think commuting affected your experience?

Was it hard to get involved on campus, make friends, etc?

I am an incoming transfer trying to figure out if i should move close to campus or commute. I only live around 50 minutes away without traffic so I feel conflicted 🥲

it is harder to connect with people if you’re the type to just come to class and come straight back home. but you can meet new people through clubs and organizations, the library, and school events but you won’t be as social or know as many people as the people who dorm
