A dormitory is a hybrid of a community lot and residential lot that can only be found in college neighborhoods. It allows the controlled Sims to live with Townies during their college days if they choose to (there is always the option of living in their own house on campus, but it is more costly). Each college has its own premade dormitories but the player is allowed to make their own or edit the pre-existing ones.

Each room door is able to be "claimed" by a single Sim, making that room his/hers and the ability to restrict access of any other Sims on the lot. You can tell which Sim has which room from the picture on the door. Townies that live on the lot with your Sims also claim rooms; you are given a minute head-start to claim which rooms you want for your Sims. To maximize frame rate, rooms claimed by Townies appear empty unless one of your Sims walks into them (gives a more realistic effect anyway of "What's going on in there!?").
