Living on Campus for your first year of college is recommended by most colleges in the US unless they don't have housing. It is a better way to get into the college life and make friends, it may require giving up your job and finding a new one though if 30 minutes is too far of a drive. At my college you can live up to 30 minutes away as a freshman if you live with your parents, but still have to use freshman parking (which is out in the middle of no where) and have a meal plan.

Also, think before moving in with your boyfriend, I know Alpha and I had a lot of problems first moving in with cleaning, and who should clean. At the time I had a job and he didn't, so it all fell on him and it never got done when i worked morning shift. Even if you guys have been together for years moving in together is a big step and a commitment. You can't just kick him out if you have a fight, and you will be stuck together for the remainder of the lease if you break up. The best advice if you are going to is to get a 2 bedroom for just incase it does happen and have a plan of action, and remember that you have to act like adults.
