The dorms for freshmen aren't all that great, but I would say that most freshmen dorms you come across anywhere are the same as at RPI. They are tolerable. They aren't the Hilton or anything of course.  They just built some new dorms which are much much nicer but more expensive. And there are much better places to live both on and off campus after freshman year, so if you can rough it like all the freshmen out there pretty much everywhere it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

If you have specific questions, feel free to ask. There are a lot RPI or RPI-connected people on the Board.

wa alaykum as salaam wa rahmatAllah,

Here's what one brother who attends RPI said:

Assalamu alaikum,

what he heard was typical of all Freshman dorms. It's not a 5 star
hotel, but it is fine. Besides, when he starts classes, that will be the last thing on his mind. So to answer his question; for freshman dorms, they are not bad. And it also depends what dorm he got. Barton, which was recently built is like a hotel. then you got Crocket which is arright. Then cary and Bray are like the worst, but still decent. The last one is Bar-H. This one is the second best after Barton. So it all depends on what dorm they give him. But
tell him not worry about it cause they are not too bad.


-- if you want the bro's email just send me a msg or email me inshaAllah.

Salaam,

D you think its possible to get into RPI (CS dept) with a SAT with
1050? Everything else (GPA, Recc, ECs) are all excellent but sats are
really low..
