Should You Live on Your Own Before Renting a Student Apartment?

Renting LSU off-campus housing sounds like a blast, but if you’ve never lived on your own before, it also sounds a little challenging. How much life experience do you need before you rent a student apartment? Should you live in a regular apartment first, or is it safe to plunge in without any previous experience?

How Much Life Experience Do You Need Before You Rent a Student Apartment?

You don’t need any specific life experience before renting a student apartment. In fact, student apartments are essentially a halfway point between living with your parents and getting your own apartment. You can plunge right into a student apartment without having any previous experience with independent living.

Student housing apartments are a good “halfway point” because they offer freedom and responsibilities, but you’ll still have plenty of people to fall back on if you need help. You’ll also be surrounded by fellow college students, whereas a traditional apartment has tenants from all walks of life. It’s the perfect way to get some life experience before you move out and apply for a single-person apartment in the city.
