State Quad Dorm Reviews at UAlbany

staying here is the perfect way to start off your freshman year. it is kind of far from the main area but it gives you a chance to talk to others and make good connections. the dining hall has pretty decent food and they keep everything clean.

Even though that I had a short lived experience on State Quad, it was a great experience and I wouldn't change it for the world. The only thing that I would say is the late night fire alarms that went off at odd hours of the night.

There are different halls in State Quad, the hall I stood in was Anthony Hall. When entering through the main entrance of the quad, the hall was towards the back of the quad to the right. It was very quiet since there was little to no foot traffic. My floor was very quite, but sometimes the floor above us did have some noise. Overall I enjoyed the experience there and wouldn't mind if I had to go back.

I lived in Whitman Hall on State Quad, which is one of the only recently renovated halls. It was ultimately a good experience. My main complaint is that during the winter of 2019-2020, the heating in my room was not functioning and it was very difficult to get fixed.

My experience of living on State Quad my freshmen year was phenomenal! I absolutely loved my room, it was comfortable and I was able to personalize it to be just as inviting as my room at home. My dorm had A/C, nice lighting, clean bathroom, and I have no complaints about anything!

I was happy that I was placed in state quad for my freshman year. I live in Tappan hall and my dorm is really nice. I also have a bathroom in my suite which is nice instead of having a communal bathroom!

My experience at State Quad was good. Though my room seemed to be on the smaller side, the closet space is great and there was a lot of storage space. My RA was also really nice, she always seemed happy and said hi to my roommate and I every time we ran into each other. My favorite part about staying on State Quad was definitely the dining hall. I also liked the fact that there study rooms in the basement which became very convenient when the weather got colder and the library seemed too far. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay on State Quad.

State Quad is a great living choice for new and transferring freshman students at UAlbany. It's usually low on the noise, besides the occasional random yelling, but that should be expected. Most residence halls are kept clean and maintained well, with janitors coming to clean dorm bathrooms once a week. Keep in mind that it's also the responsibility of students to keep their living areas clean, especially common areas. Staff are friendly and always happy to help. You can often find campus police around to keep everything safe. One downside can be the size of your particular dorm (bedrooms, bathrooms, common areas, etc.) but not every dorm is laid out the same way so you may find that you have a larger or smaller living space than someone else. So overall, I would definitely recommend State Quad as a good freshman living experience to introduce you to the realities of living away from home.

Great experience I really enjoyed how the dining hall was right on the quad. I feel the staff of Residental Life is very helpful and I liked attending the programs the Residental Assistants would have. I love state quad!

The fire alarms kept going off and were so sensitive. Having the alarm go off at 3am or 5am in the morning was not fun for anyone. The rooms could use an upgrade. The bathroom got cleaned every week so it was clean.

When I first arrived at state quad, I felt the room was pretty. Over the year, I adjusted nicely to its space, and I'm happy with it now. State quad is very close to the bus stop, but far from the campus center. State quad has thousands of ladybugs visit every fall. State quad does not have a gym in its basement, which means a walk to another quad is required. Half of the dryers in the laundry room are broken.

I personally really enjoyed my time and am excited to be back next semester. Although certain areas in the building are a little old, it kind of gives you the college vibes. Pretty sure it's getting renovated soon too.

State Quad is pretty calm, except for the occasional loud people outside at night, however that is probably the tower people with their loud nightly shenanigans. Besides that, I must say I did enjoy my stay so far.

I'm an undergraduate dorming at SUNY Albany in State Quad. So far I really like it here. The food is good, but i recommend the salad. They also be having some french fries with burgers, surprisingly it tastes like a McDonald's burger.

I love the fact that state quad is so close to transportation. It makes it very easy for me to get to where I need to go efficiently. The dining hall as state quad is exceptional. Everyone there is very attentive towards you and so interactive about your schooling.
