Dorms are easier to access and you don't have to worry about paying rent every month, but honestly, apartments are much more laid back and you can actually do whatever you please, without having to worry about late night/early morning fire alarms.
Depending where you are, you might be able to get a decent apartment for a decent price. But you do have to take into account that dorms tend to be on campus, and you may have to commute from an apartment.

Not sure where you are, but even if you live in a large city.. Getting an apartment between 2 to 4 people will wind up being much cheaper than dorms if you price it right. For example, in a city.. if you go towards the least popular/not as nice areas, you could be saving a few thousand dollars a year just by getting an apartment.
