commuter. Utilities and cable can be an added monthly expense, and students may have to pay

for their various bills such as water bill, electricity bills or Internet access. It also stated in the

study that the social life of those who commute are usually isolated or anti-social because of

having to traveling from home. However, they tend to have more privacy among themselves.

amount of college loans they will need to pay back. A commuter student tends to have bigger

saving than those who live in a dorm near campus. Since, food is one of an important factor for

every student daily routine, home cooked meals is a massive benefit for a student who chose to

stay home. However, dormers must have a serious budget plan for them to save more money.
