Lewis & Clark College Dorm Tour | Jocelyn Rausten

Hey guys! This is a change of pace to show what a dorm room at Lewis and Clark College could look like! All of my decorations and uses of space are permitted at LC, you just have to get a little creative to make your space feel like home. Once again this is a SOA dorm in the Holistic Wellness LLC. Thanks for watching!!

Your dorm is decorated/organized so well! LC is one of the schools I'm really considering for next year so this was so nice to see.

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Thank you so much! Good luck on your decision!!

[@juliastarkey9266]

​@@jocelynrausten8822 Thank you! I'm planning on committing in the next couple of days, and I was wondering if you would recommend applying to an LLC? I am considering the VAPA one but was wondering about the pros and cons of LLCs.

[@jocelynrausten8822]

@@juliastarkey9266 LLCs are awesome if you want to ensure being surrounded by people with similar interests, and they are not a huge source of commitment either. If there is one you are interested in I would 100% recommend applying, especially if you want to have a better chance of being in that specific dorm. I could give you some insight on the LLCs you are checking out if you send me the names of the ones you are interested in. :)

[@juliastarkey9266]

@@jocelynrausten8822 Thanks!! I was interested in VAPA.

[@jocelynrausten8822]

@@juliastarkey9266 Yeah! So vapa is in platt-howard, and the whole hall is pretty centered around the arts even outside of the vapa "zone". I believe being in vapa gets you access to the plateau (don't quote me on that lol), which is the mini art studio downstairs in platt and it is really cool. So essentially, if you really want to be in platt-howard and you love the arts, then for sure apply for the LLC!

I'll be there this fall! This was a super helpful video thank you

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Congratulations! Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

[@aubreygrace8896]

Your dorm looks awesome!! I’m going to L&C next year and this was super helpful to see!

[@jocelynrausten8822]

I'm so glad to hear that! If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask!!

[@taraodonnell6054]

I am obsessed with this decor!! I’m headed to Clark in Massachusetts this fall and I will be using this as a reference for my dorm :)

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Yes! So excited for you! Glad to hear you dig my old dorm :)

[@Luvsquirrels]

Just found out I was accepted and this video just made me even more excited lol!

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Yay! I'm so excited for you!!

[@chelseyhawkins8021]

I’m going to Louis and Clark College in Godfrey Illinois 😍

[@sleepycadet]

[@luciaquevedocornejo9883]

I’m applying and this video helped me so much!!!!!!

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Yay I'm so glad!! Let me know if you have any questions :)

[@luciaquevedocornejo9883]

Jocelyn Rausten thanks!!!! Do you have an email where I could text you?

[@jocelynrausten8822]

You can email me at [e-mail] :))

[@jackparker9062]

Thank you for making these, I am coming to LC as a freshman this fall and these are so nice to just watch when I feel a tad nervous about leaving home (I live in southern California). I going to live in Howard hall for the upcoming year, do you have any information that like all pamphlets and stuff would not have already told me? :)

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Hey Jack! I'm also from southern California, and I'm glad these videos have helped! I think I have only been in howard once... but I hear the rooms are pretty spacious especially compared to platt. Platt is connected by a bridge and I think the main common room for both is in platt, and it is pretty nice! Find me on instagram if you want to reach out with more questions!

[@chelseyhawkins8021]

I am going 2 your College soon🐳

[@js-ds2xj]

im going next year!! thoughts on the forest dorm hall and the platt-howard dorm hall?

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Hi! Yes, so the forest dorms are super fun because the shape of the buildings allows for a close community, and Alder has new kitchens that are awesome! Platt and Howard are a little more traditional in structure and tend to be super artsy overall.

[@reillyjamison2705]

Hi! I know you have all the cooking supplies. Are you allowed to cook in your room or do you cook your meals somewhere else? Love your videos!!

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Hey Reilly! Thank you! You can have an electric kettle and a microwave in you room, but other cooking is done in the residential kitchens. There is a kitchen in every hall, but some are bigger than others.

[@katkonopleva2872]

What dorm would you say is the best for freshman? Also love your vid thank you for giving me an inside look

[@jocelynrausten8822]

of course!! I think that the forest dorms foster the tightest communities, but if you're into athletics definitely copeland!

[@katkonopleva2872]

@@jocelynrausten8822 I’m very unathletic lol and thank you so much!To be honest my top priority is whichever one has the biggest room size

[@jocelynrausten8822]

That's fair! I think SOA has the biggest rooms other than Howard :))

[@DiegoPerez-wj7pj]

Hello! I'm looking into applying, are you enjoying your experience so far? Is the tuition super expensive? How is Portland as a city?

[@jocelynrausten8822]

Hi Diego! I love LC as a school- a lot of my other videos I have posted can show that haha! Tuition as a sticker price is super expensive, but they offer scholarships, aid packages, work-study, and many other ways to make LC financially attainable. Portland is amazing and so close! Our free shuttle/bus takes you straight into the "real" city from our cute neighborhood on the hill. I like to say that Portland is a mix of the best parts of L.A. and Seattle. I also have a lot of bits from the city in other videos, so check them out and shoot me any more questions you have before applying!

[@jagejg7239]

Do y’all think they’d let me live off campus as a freshman? Those of us with ADHD make for awful roommates.
