Exceptional Living In Chicago

I love how there are a lot of activities that you can do, and you can have a lot of fun. I really do love my community. I love to go a lot of places, like I love to go to the library and read books. I also love to walk around downtown sightseeing.

Every event at dwight lofts have been so fun and the community here is so welcoming and encouraging. I am really happy to be at the dwight and with this community.

I love the diversity and the ability to speak to other creatives like myself! I love being able to have the opportunities at Columbia I wouldn’t be able to have at another school.

I really like living here at the dwight. Compared to other student housing I was considering this is by far the best. My favorite part is the full kitchen because it saves me a lot of money on eating out or a dining plan.

I love how chill everyone is and open to creating a community in the dorms. I think having access to the sky lounge and graffiti room especially makes it fun and easy to get out of your room and talk to others.

All of my suite-mates are wonderful people. We love to watch shows together and sit in the living room to talk. We communicate very well and support each other. We also make each other laugh and it helps to have amazing people in my life to support me while we all go through this new big change of college.

I love how everyone is nice, always asking how are you, or how was your day. And can always ask questions if you need help with anything here.

Its an apartment so there is nothing to dislike. I love the view I get from the city and especially when the night rolls around. I love the kitchen layout aswell.

What I love most about your community is the sense of connection and support that seems to thrive here. Whether it's how people show up for each other, share knowledge, or celebrate one another’s wins, there’s a real feeling of belonging. It’s clear that this is a place where individuals aren’t just part of a group—they matter to it. That kind of energy builds trust, inspires growth, and makes a lasting impact.

I love the kindness, friendliness and support from not only my staff, but my suite mates and neighbors. This truly feels like a community ! I have only been here a week , yet I have made so many different friendships and connections that I see lasting a longtime.

So far the people and staff have been lovely and are super welcoming. I've been able to make multiple new friends and I am really excited to make even more! I love the fun things in the apartment like the lounge and graffiti room!

It’s wonderful! The energy here is so good. Everyone was honestly nice and patient during move in day. We did have a lil trouble with the fire alarm but everyone was nature not one person was hurt during us moving around so that’s really great.

I’ve never talked about musical theater for so long in one sitting. It has been amazing meeting people who have the same interests, and through events that are a lot of fun.

Aug 28, 2025

Everyone here is so inviting and friendly it makes me want to be here. The independence is new but that just means more cooking experiments along with a little quite away from the younger brother

I really enjoy the welcome week events going on. I went to the ice breaker one today and honestly met so many cool people. It got me super excited for the rest of the year and less nervous about finding friends :)
