I realized that though I've had this for download on my site for almost a year, I'd never released it here.
I like my dorms to look like "dorms." Utilitarian, not that luxurious, but functional. This dorm has had a lot of playtesting, not only by me, but several others as well.
Basement included for aspiration rewards or whatever. Room outside for gardening and a back door to access the pond for fishing.
I built is specifically to look like it fit in Sim State as this picture shows, however, you do need to move the rocks and tree group in the neighborhood just a bit so this fits where I've pictured it here. Siding and walkways are the same as used in Maxis-made Sim State buildings.
Space for 10 with 4 double rooms that seem to work fine. Single sims work great in the double bed rooms in each corner. I didn't put gender doors on the bathroom as it annoys me to send the right sim to the right bathroom, but that could be easily changed if you want those.
I used one of my own maxis rug recolors from Maxis Recolors: Room in a Box (Living Room) - Tan-Stripe-Bravo . I included it on this page for convenience. If you don't want to download it, it'll just default to a maxis rug, no harm done. No other custom content or walls/floors!

- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.

About Me
Please use, share, destroy, modify, etc, my creations as you see fit. I'd appreciate a credit if you use them in a public manner, but it's not necessary. If you make a movie or tell a story in one of my houses, I'd love to see your work, but again, its not necessary.
I create for my own enjoyment of the game, and upload because I get a self-esteem boost when people like my stuff :)
