I had a fantastic time at MIT. It's really, really intense and you have to be extremely driven and love technical subjects. If that describes you, you'll have a great time.

It's also a great party school, believe it or not. The dorms are all very different from each other, some with typical college life, some really nerdy, some with lots of hardcore partying. This makes it a place where it's easy to find people who are similar to you, assuming that you are generally smart and like math.

MIT is pretty nice in terms of things like having an open campus even at night, not forcing dining plans upon you even in your first year, not caring if you drill holes into walls of the older dorms and explode things in the courtyard, etc.

I would not trust such a review now. A lot has changed over the past 10 years. We have two new comfortable campuses. I am very pleased with the living conditions (I have something to compare with)

I recently completed my studies and I also want to say that I lived in normal conditions. My brother graduated from the University of Toronto. He said that there was an opportunity to independently choose a window model for renovating rooms on campus - https://thwindowsdoors.com/width-of-exterior-door-and-other-measurements-for-entry-doors/ This option is not available in every educational institution, and I was simply glad that my brother studied in comfortable conditions.
